2007/08 Campaign

Many thanks to the residents of Douglas County for their generous contributions for funds raised in 2006/07 which are currently being distributed.  Money is raised through the generosity of local businesses, their employees, individuals and also through Special Events and special gifts.

 

Why Should You Give To The United Way?

We're Local.

Funds raised in the area stay here to address local problems.

 

We're Accountable.

Local volunteers review requests and make the tough allocations decisions, ensuring every dollar is spent wisely.

 

We're Efficient.

Volunteers help conduct the campaign, keeping costs low. In the past fiscal year, over 87% of donor funds went directly to support local programs and agencies.

 

We're CONVENIENT.

Payroll deduction provides a simple way to give.

 

We Help People.

United Way funded programs strive to improve the quality of life for neighbors, friends, co-workers, and families.
