Niagara College’s 2015 United Way campaign was launched at Niagara Day Sept. 2 with the unveiling of a new campaign logo by campaign co-chairs Karen McGrath and Lesley Calvin, with the help of Tamara Coleman-Lawrie, executive director United Way South Niagara. Niagara College is a community of very caring individuals and your United Way Planning Committee is counting on your support to help us meet and hopefully exceed our campaign goal of $40,000 this year.
Why?
When we invest with United Way, we help fund essential programs and services, improve lives and create positive impact. Every dollar we raise will make a difference in the life of a person or a family right here in Niagara. Our local United Way offices support over 129 programs in Niagara and Niagara College is proud to participate in this campaign. Your donation via the Niagara College campaign can be directed to any Niagara United Way office, or to any specified registered charity of your choice.
How to donate?
It is easy: click here nclibraries.niagaracollege.ca/c.php?g=370810&p=2506169 to donate online or to print off a pledge form.
Weekly draws – back by popular demand!
There will be weekly Friday draws for fantastic prizes from Sept 4 through December 11. So the earlier you donate, the more draws you will be eligible for and the sooner we will reach and exceed our goal!
And just a reminder that pledges collected during this campaign will be deducted from payroll for the 2016 calendar year; if you have deductions active right now, they are in fulfillment of your 2014 campaign pledge and you need to make a new pledge to continue to support this year’s 2015 campaign.
Fundraising Events
In addition to your individual donations, your planning committee hopes you will participate in the some of the many events (e.g. WTF Trivia Night!) we have organized for staff and students, all proceeds going to United Way, which will take place from September through Dec. 2015: Check out the events calendar on the campaign website!
