UMB has a long and generous history of participating in the Maryland Charity Campaign (MCC), a charitable workplace giving program offering state employees and eligible retirees opportunities to contribute to charities that are meaningful to them. This year’s campaign theme is Giving Back Together.

One meaningful way to honor Veterans Day this year is by supporting one of the many veteran-focused charities participating in the 2025 Maryland Charity Campaign. Organizations such as Fidos for Freedom, Disabled American Veterans Charitable Service Trust, Women Veterans United Committee, Inc., and Wounded Warriors in Action Foundation, Inc. are making a difference — and your support can too.

Contributions can be made through the convenience of payroll deduction or a one-time gift. The campaign will run until Dec. 12 but consider giving early for a chance to win one of several weekly MCC prizes.
