CAMPAIGN E-NEWSLETTER: SEPTEMBER 26, 2007
Welcome to United Way of Central New York's 2007 Campaign E-Newsletter

The first drawing for the Step Up Challenge, United Way’s promotional campaign sweepstakes, will be held on Monday, October 1. Those who “step up” by giving for the first time, or increasing their gifts by $1 per week ($52 per year), will be entered in the contest—as soon as we receive their pledge forms. To be included in next week’s drawings, entries must be received at our offices by close of business today. Please call your account manager as soon as possible to arrange a pick up.

New to Step Up this year

  • 6 Grand Prizes – Thanks to our generous sponsors, the number of grand prizes grew again this year! Our new slate of prizes is sure to please everyone, from the homebody to the jet-setter! Click here to view the prizes

  • Super Monday Prizes – Starting the work week will be just a little sweeter for the winners of these extra-value daily prizes. The Super Monday prize list includes wine for a year, massages, and a brand-new bicycle!

  • EVEN More Daily Prizes this year, the Step Up Challenge runs for 17 weeks, from October 1 through the end of January.

  • Gala Grand Prize Drawing – This year, three finalists will be chosen for each grand prize and the winners will be chosen with great fanfare at United Way’s annual Achievement Celebration on January 24.

Remember, the sooner we receive your pledge forms, the more prizes you and your co-workers are eligible to win—so plan to report often and get those pledge forms to United Way each week while your campaign is running. 

The Brothers and Sisters of Organized Labor officially kicked off their United Way campaign Saturday at Stuff-A-Bus. Click here to view photos from this great event, which collects school supplies for needy children.
