Open Arms Payroll Contributions This time of year is perfect for associates to consider enrolling in an Open Arms payroll contribution or increase a current payroll contribution. • Week 1 materials include a link to KB0010267 How to Add/Change Open Arms Contributions in Workday. • New enrollees will receive a gift from Open Arms after completing and returning a Workday generated Open Arms Donation Thank You Gift Election Form. o The form can be sent to Open Arms for fulfillment: openarms@maac.com or faxed to (901) 271-1690. o Associates that increase current contributions will not receive a gift form due to the original contribution gift, but all payroll deductions are tax deductible. o Annual contribution information can be found on pay slip information in Workday or on yearly W2 information. • WIN A PAID DAY OFF!
