2012 Campaign Kicks Off - Celebrate With These Events!
United Way's 2012 fundraising campaign officially kicks off today. Join us online for the festivities:
Enjoy the world premiere of our "Donate Baby!" video, a parody using Carly Rae Jepsen's song "Call Me Maybe." You can see it on our YouTube channel here.
On Facebook, we've debuted cover photos for you to use on your page to show your Live United spirit! Download your favorite, then upload it to the cover photo spot on your Facebook page. Please use a Live United cover photo between Sept. 14 and Sept. 21 to help kick off the campaign! Check out the cover photos here.
You can also make plans to Live United this fall by RSVPing to our upcoming advocacy and volunteer events. We are bringing the community together to raise at least $16.7 million this fall to help local people in need and strengthen our region for the future. Thank you for Living United!
