WVU United Way Campaign at halfway point

WVU United Way goal thermometer

As we reach the halfway point of the 2020 WVU United Way Campaign, we are inching toward raising 50% of our overall goal. Thanks to the generosity of our campus community, we have raised $96,294.

The United Way of Monongalia and Preston Counties has responded to local needs and society's most pressing problems for more than 80 years. However, COVID-19 has presented new challenges throughout our entire community. 

The pandemic may have seemed to make our world pause for a little while, but the needs of people in our community have not. That's why your donations, whether they be big or small, are needed now more than ever. 

For example, a $5 donation can provide a backpack of food to a child over the weekend, and a $10 donation can fund round-trip travel to a person for a medical appointment. 

If you can, please donate today, and don't forget that today (Oct. 15) is the last day to purchase a Gold Rush T-shirt.
