Leadership Giving Program
5 years ago United Way introduced a new category of support called Leadership Giving. This promotes personal giving of $250 or more to the United Way. The program recognizes four categories of giving:
The program encourages requests for financial support to be made on a one-on-one basis. Many people will respond positively to such a request particularly if it is from a friend or colleague.
Leadership Giving donors who give $500 or more receive public recognition (with permission) with their name being listed on the Leadership Giving letter, in the Annual Report and on the United Way website.
Public recognition is provided to companies that have three or more donors who give $500 or more.
Mini Putt Marathon
Businesses, large and small, service clubs and agencies, all are encouraged to enter a team of four and raise funds for United Way and other registered charities.
This will be a fun event for the participants. Team members can bring their own putters, wear outrageous clothes and hope that the weather is reasonable!
The level of skill required for mini-putt is not high! Participants can be young or old, male or female, golfers or hackers.
There must be one member of each team playing throughout the entire 12 hours. Team members can rotate whenever they want.
There is over $3,000 in prize money. The winning teams earn the right to designate their prize level to a registered charity of their choice.
Also the team that raises the most in pledges can designate their pledges to the registered charity of their choice as well as this year there will be a random draw.
Each team is asked to raise a minimum of $400 in pledges ($100 per team member).
The registration form and pledge sheet can be obtained from the United Way office. Please call (519) 426-5660.
Please support this event and encourage your employees/members to participate.
