On the Campaign Trail

As we set out with a goal of raising $2.1 million dollars in the 2023 Community Campaign, we extend our thanks to companies that host United Way workplace or employee giving campaigns. Our partners invite employees to help blaze a trail to a stronger community by pledging a convenient gift via payroll deduction. From organizations like ABC Supply Co., which consistently achieves the largest campaign in the Blackhawk Region, to IPM Foods - launching their first campaign this fall, and the 150 organizations in between that provide corporate gifts and employee campaigns, we extend our heartfelt thanks.

Helpful Reminders:

• United Way's Director of Corporate Campaigns, Erin Davis, may be reached at 608.314.8421 to assist you with planning a successful campaign. Erin is available to schedule speakers, provide extra materials, and pick-up completed campaign envelopes.
• United Way will attend and enthusiastically present at campaign events, we can bring along Funded Partners, as well as the 2023 Trailblazer.
• In addition to paper pledge forms, ePledge is free and available to organizations that would like a customized pledge via email option. Click here to set up a demo.
• Campaign video, pledge forms, posters, and more, are all available for you to download at LiveUnitedBR.org/corporate-partners.
• Nearly all campaigns conclude by year-end to ensure payroll departments have time to update deductions for the new year.

Employee Campaign Coordinators (ECCs), alongside our Campaign Cabinet volunteers, serve as climb leaders on the strenuous campaign trail. Each year, we experience our share of ups and downs, and this team keeps us on the positive path, always looking ahead with eyes on the prize - raising crucial dollars for health and human service programs. Thank you, Trailblazers!
