Vacation Donation Program

Each fiscal year employees may donate up to twelve (12) hours of vacation time or up to twelve (12) hours of personal leave time to faculty members who do not earn vacation, each fiscal year for the benefit of other employees with unreimbursed medical expenses. Employees who have unreimbursed medical expenses for themselves or a family member in excess of $10,000 may request assistance under the program. Information about recipients under the program is distributed statewide. On the Bemidji State University campus articles are published in the newsletter, distributed to bulletin boards, and with paychecks. Forms to donate vacation or personal leave hours are available in the Human Resources and Payroll Offices.
