A message from the NC United Way campaign committee:
The spirit of giving was strong on Niagara Day with more than $24,000 raised for NC’s 2018 United Way workplace campaign! Thank you to everyone who donated making this year’s campaign kick-off a great success and, most importantly, helping those in need within our community.
Every dollar counts! Funds raised as part of NC’s United Way workplace campaign make a real difference in the lives of Niagara residents by supporting essential services and programs right here in our region.
Everyone who donated $25 or more on Niagara Day was entered into a draw with a chance to win one of a number of great prizes. Names were drawn at random and this year’s Niagara Day prize winners include:
Gregory Stout: Tickets to CFWI’s Signature event Caps, Corks and Forks
Pamela Skinner : Benchmark Restaurant gift certificate
Laura Fakla: Benchmark Restaurant gift certificate
Michele O’Keefe: TiCats tickets
Natasha Patrito Hannon: Niagara Falls Swag Bag and Attractions Package including boat tour tickets with Hornblower Niagara Cruises and more
Congratulations to our winners!
