A check for the raised amount, which was collected over a four-week campaign that kicked off in October, was presented to the UWMC on Tuesday morning at the Βι¶ΉΣ³» North Corporate Office.
“We’re extremely grateful for the partnership (with Βι¶ΉΣ³»),” said UWMC Executive Director Diane Baker. “Every year they set the bar higher and continue to be generous. It’s in their culture and they are committed to this community.”
“We do continue to raise the bar,” said Erica Tweeten, claims manager for Βι¶ΉΣ³», who chairs the United Way campaign. “This year was a big year for us. People continue to be generous and the participation level has been up.”
The UWMC is hoping to reach a goal of $1,225,000 to help fund needs in the community.
