Because of You: United Way of Broome County Surpasses Goal for Annual Community Campaign

Jul 2, 2020 | Blog

Thank you.


Donors, advocates, volunteers – because of you, the 2019-2020 Annual Community Campaign year was a success.

We are proud to announce that we have surpassed our goal of $1,818,000! The dollars raised in this year’s campaign have been committed to assisting 34 local non-profit organizations with 51 projects and programs that are designed to produce lasting change and support our community’s basic needs, health, education, and financial stability.

Facing a variety of challenges, including the COVID-19 global pandemic, Broome County’s culture of caring was once again on full display throughout the campaign year and we are truly honored for the support of the community. With less than 30 days remaining back in early June, we announced the Safety Net Challenge Match. Through a $25,000 sponsorship of the challenge match committed by IBM Endicott, all donations made throughout June 2020 were matched dollar-for-dollar. Through the Safety Net Challenge, donations were generously contributed, including investments from National Pipe and Plastics, Toyota Financial Services, with the assistance of Jack Sherman Toyota, Coughlin & Gerhart, LLP, NYSEG, and donations raised through KW Fitness, as well as other individuals and organizations.

Our goals were made possible through the generosity of countless individuals and organizations. We thank you, and look forward to what this new campaign year has in store!
