UC employees seek assistance through Leave Donation program

Help fellow co-workers in need by considering a time off contribution

UC faculty and staff are encouraged to consider donating vacation time under the UC Leave Donation program to help co-workers ease the strain of time off work without pay due to a serious health condition.

Interested in Donating Time?

A donor may donate between four (4) and forty (40) hours of vacation time but must retain at least 240 hours of combined time off work (sick, vacation and/or comp time) after the donation. The names of donors will be held confidential and will not be disclosed to the recipient or their department.

For more information, review the Leave Donation Program page and electronically submit a Donor Application Form with DocuSign.

Questions?

Reach out to the Leave Administration team within UC’s Human Resources Department at loaadm@ucmail.uc.edu.
