This year’s United Way campaign is drawing to a close. As we approach the end of the campaign on November 6, we wanted to share inspiring words from some of our donors who took the time to talk to us about why they choose to give.

“Giving matters to me because it is a response to the needs of the world. I grew up working class in a middle-class neighborhood. My recreation was all community provided, and I appreciate the opportunities that I had. Now, I am grateful for the wonderful organizations that are meeting the complex challenges in today’s communities. I choose the United Way because of its unique reach in the local community. The United Way does the fundraising and advocacy, allowing the funded organizations to concentrate on their necessary work. It is my privilege to contribute in a small way through a workplace pledge.”
– Susan Jones, John L. Haar Library
