Madison, WI (November 19, 2015) – TASC, the largest privately held, third-party employee benefits administrator in the country, was honored by the United Way of Dane County for its recent fundraising success. TASC received the 2015 Red Feather Award for the largest dollar increase in employee giving for large employers with 350 or more employees. TASC also finished among the top local large employers for the highest percent participation in an employee campaign, the highest average gift per donor, the largest percent increase in new donors, and for total employee and corporate giving. In addition, TASC received a Platinum Award for having a campaign with employee gifts averaging $250 or more per employees and a campaign award of distinction for having an increase of 25 percent or more in 2015.
“I am overjoyed at the generosity shown by TASC’s employees,” said Dan Rashke, 2015 United Way Campaign Chair and CEO of TASC. “TASC’s employees rocked this year, and together with employees at similarly-minded companies, we will be moving families on pathways out of poverty over the next year.”
The Dan and Patti Rashke (TASC) Family Foundation added to their employees’ giving by generously offering up a $350,000 matching grant to spur breakthrough funding for United Way. This innovative grant matches one-time, significant gifts which will fund United Way initiatives.
