United Way Campaign Begins on Feb. 15

Kalamazoo Valley Community College and the United Way of the Greater Battle Creek/Kalamazoo Region will partner with the annual campus fund drive beginning February 15 - 19. Over the next week, you will have the opportunity to help our community “Change the Story” by participating in this year’s United Way campaign. This campaign is about bringing people together to tackle our community’s most challenging issues, because no one person or organization can do it alone.

Your help is essential. With the help of hundreds of volunteers like you, we’re transforming our region together, one life at a time. Your contributions stay local, in our community. Your donations help many grassroots, small nonprofits who understand our local needs.

Change doesn’t happen alone, it takes you, and it takes us standing together. We hope you will choose to participate in this year’s campaign. You have the option of using payroll deduction as a means for donating and deductions will begin on April 1, 2021. If you chose to make your donation through payroll deduction, your contribution will be deducted over 19 pay periods through December 31, 2021.

The fillable pledge form can be accessed at Pledge Form. PLEASE MAKE SURE TO INDICATE YOUR VALLEY NUMBER after your name. Once completed please forward your pledge form to Vicki Warkoczeski in Room 3380. The designation form to have your donation sent to a specific charity is found at Designation Form. As in the past, you have made a difference! Thank you for considering a gift to United Way. Thank you for helping CHANGE THE STORY.
