On November 28th, the employee committee of the City of Norman’s United Way of Norman campaign were recognized for their volunteer efforts by proclamation!

Representatives from a dozen major departments organized a series of fundraisers this fall — to include a community cookout, bake sale, chili cookoff, door decor contest, raffle drawing to Ride to School in a Fire Truck, and more — and encouraged support pledges, to raise more than $42,000 for our neighbors in need. Committee members of the 2023 campaign included: Veronica Tracy, co-chair; Tiffany Vrska, co-chair; Summer Buesing, Dannielle Risenhoover, Jeanne Snider, Sheila Wiard, Derrick Hopkins, Melissa Godwin, Amy Shepard, Whitney Kline, Kimberly Freeman, Justin Garrett, and Sandra Simeroth. Hats off for their hard work, the collaboration of businesses that made multiple events possible, and all of the Difference Makers across the Norman community!
