United Way campaign plans to 'Focus on Fifty'

Increasing employee participation to 50 percent is the goal of the University's 1999 United Way campaign "Focus on Fifty." The campaign kicked off on February 22 and continues through March 26.

Last year, the University raised $640,000 for the United Way of Greater Rochester. What goes around comes around: The United Way returned $830,589 to the University through its funding of University-affiliated programs.

The hundreds of programs the United Way of Greater Rochester supports benefit thousands across its seven-county service area. Employees can direct their contributions to specific programs through the campaign's Donor Choice Program.
