Every year, thousands of employees are involved in United Way workplace giving campaigns that improve the education, basic needs, and health of individuals and families within our community.
You might be wondering, “How can my business help make a difference in the local community?”
A great way to help our community right now, as a business, is by making a corporate gift to United Way or implementing a United Way workplace campaign for your employees. Many of our neighbors, friends, and co-workers are in need. It is impossible to have a healthy and successful company without a healthy workforce.
A United Way workplace campaign is a great way to bring together employees and give them an opportunity to donate, volunteer, and advocate for causes that are important to them. A workplace campaign is more than just raising money; it strengthens connections between employees and their community. It also gives you and your employees the chance to learn more about United Way along with the opportunity to actively participate in giving back to our community.
At United Way of Northwest Georgia, we have so many tools and resources available to help you set up your campaign. To access our Online Campaign Toolkit and to learn more about the company resources that we provide, please visit www.ourunitedway.org/company-resources, or contact amy.ross@ourunitedway.org.
Once you are on the Online Campaign Toolkit you will find resources to help run a successful campaign and year-round communications program.
You can access printed materials such as:
Posters (English and Spanish)
Brochures (English and Spanish)
Flyers with local success stories
Giving Guides
Pledge Cards (English and Spanish)
You can also access additional Campaign Resources such as:

All these printed materials can help strengthen your workplace campaign, however, we know that COVID-19 has affected the workplace in substantial ways. Due to the rise of employees working from home, we are also offering virtual campaign materials such as videos and digital pdfs of all printed materials to help make this year’s workplace campaign as seamless and safe as possible.
With needs increasing from the COVID-19 pandemic, our Community Partners have been facing major cost increases as well as increases in clients. United Way has always been here serving the Northwest Georgia community and we are working hard with our agencies on the frontlines of this crisis, but we need the help and support of local organizations.
We have the opportunity to do something incredible by coming together, helping, and encouraging one another. We can say that we were a part of something special that moved our community to a stronger place.
Together, we can Build Better Futures!
For more information about having a workplace campaign please contact Amy Ross.
