The United Way annual campaign is the largest community fundraising effort, helping thousands of people through collective action, raising funds that will then be invested in local programs. 70% of funds raised are through workplace campaigns. United Way volunteers, staff and sponsored employees provide tools and resources to support volunteer-led fundraising campaigns in the workplace
