LEWIS-CLARK VALLEY – More than 200 business and nonprofit members attended the TwinCounty United Way Campaign Kickoff Breakfast earlier this month where the local non-profit leaders and Board Members shared the mission, vision, and importance of employee giving.
The Twin County United Way fights for the health, education, and financial stability for every person in Asotin and Nez Perce counties. The organization asked those in attendance to join the fight with the campaign message: United we fight. United we win.
Kristin Kemak, CEO, and Blake Harrington, Director of Operations and Programs shared their personal stories about why they both decided to work for the organization. Board Member CathyJo Witters provided the main presentation, asking the attendees for their support stating, “Our
community was built on a foundation where you care for your neighbor, we are built on the theory that we are small enough to care, yet large enough to make a difference”.
Many donors and supporters are first introduced to the United Way through workplace giving programs. By kicking off the campaign with this breakfast, the United Way team hopes to connect with even more individuals to reach this year’s campaign goal of engaging 3,000 donors in
the 2023-24 campaign.
Businesses interested in running an employee giving campaign are encouraged to contact the Twin County United Way at (208) 743-6594 to receive tools and support for a successful campaign.
