This Just In…

I recently learned some great news - our 2010 Celebrity Event saluting Waterloo Regional Police Chief Matt Torigian raised a cool $50,000!

My team and I truly appreciate the generous support shown by those sponsoring and attending the event. These funds will be distributed locally to programs and initiatives supporting our five regional priorities - children and youth, families, newcomers, neighbourhoods and economic security.

Unfortunately, need in our community continues to be on the rise and we’re still seeing significant increases in local demand for social services. As a result, our work is far from over.

At United Way, we’re committed to supporting this community. If you haven’t already done so, I encourage you to please join us by pledging your commitment too. By supporting our 3-year, $21 million campaign, you’ll help fuel long-term, sustainable change targeting our community’s key social issues.

Together, we can make positive change happen.
