<strong>United</strong> <strong>Way</strong> Community <strong>Report</strong> <strong>2011</strong> • Thursday, April 19, 2012 - 9<br />
UNITED WAY COMMUNITY REPORT <strong>2011</strong><br />
Message from the Campaign Chair<br />
This past year has been an amazing adventure for me. As<br />
the <strong>2011</strong> Campaign Chair for <strong>Northumberland</strong> <strong>United</strong> <strong>Way</strong>,<br />
I have tried and been involved in many new and exciting<br />
things. My year was filled with activities like curling, dragon<br />
boating, Cougars games and a golf tournament. I stuffed<br />
backpacks, sampled stews and soups, toured local agencies<br />
and a food warehouse. I now have a much broader and deeper<br />
understanding about the community in which I live.<br />
My job involved going to businesses and industries to discuss<br />
in-house campaigns, touring Day of Caring sites, weekly<br />
on-air meetings with the crew at the local radio station,<br />
attending photo opportunities, contributing to the <strong>United</strong><br />
<strong>Way</strong> Newsletter and much, much more. I enjoyed every single<br />
minute of it.<br />
I have had the pleasure of witnessing young and old alike<br />
coming together to support the cause in which they believe.<br />
I have seen the power of volunteerism and how incredibly<br />
important it is in a community. Believe me when I say<br />
that <strong>Northumberland</strong> is filled with active and committed<br />
volunteers whose contributions are enormous.<br />
As far as financial donations go, <strong>Northumberland</strong> County<br />
residents must have set the standards of compassion and<br />
generosity this year as they dug deep into their pockets to help<br />
out their neighbours, friends, co-workers and total strangers. I<br />
was astounded at the breadth of ways that people can give to<br />
their <strong>United</strong> <strong>Way</strong>. And I am most grateful as well.<br />
On behalf of all those who will benefit from the dollars raised<br />
during the campaign, I would like to thank you. Although<br />
my time as Campaign Chair has come to an end, I still plan<br />
to maintain my association with <strong>Northumberland</strong> <strong>United</strong><br />
<strong>Way</strong>. In fact, I see it becoming even stronger than before.<br />
<strong>Thank</strong> you <strong>Northumberland</strong> for continuing to care, and as<br />
the scope of <strong>United</strong> <strong>Way</strong> continues to grow and develop<br />
to best suit the needs of our communities, I know that you<br />
will be there during every campaign to support this very<br />
worthwhile organization.<br />
