United Way Campaign Underway

Truman is launching its campaign to help the United Way of Northeast Missouri.

The funds raised during the campaign will stay in the local area. The local programs and services funded by the United Way of Northeast Missouri are among agencies who provide disaster services, meals for senior citizens, bereavement counseling, utility assistance, life skills training, membership assistance for the YMCA, Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts, youth tutoring programs and much more. To learn more about the local programs and services that can benefit from donations visit liveunitednemo.org.

There are several ways to donate. Those who receive letters in the mail can donate by sending in a check. Faculty and staff can donate using payroll deduction. Donations can also be made online. Students can donate meals from their meal plans and when the campaign ends Sodexo will write a check to United Way.

Faculty and staff that donate can enter to win a reserved parking spot for 2023. In order to be considered for this drawing donations must be made by Nov. 18 and this form submitted. While a donation of any size will have an equal opportunity to win, it is encouraged to set up a recurring monthly donation of $10 or more. This can be accomplished using the payroll deduction option on the pledge form, or the United Way website.
