It’s UAA Community Campaign time!
by Ted Kincaid |
It's UAA Community Campaign time! From Oct. 5 until Dec. 14, you can make our communities better places to live. Every pledge, for any amount, makes a difference.
Based on your requests, this year we've added agencies from the Mat-Su to the list of service agencies to contribute to. So those of you who make the long drive - or have family members in the Valley - can provide for a better community there as well! There are 92 nonprofit agencies within the campaign - agencies of the United Way and reputable independent providers. Go to the Community Campaign web page and click on "Learn about the Organizations" to see the complete list.
How to pledge:
- Go to: www.uaa.alaska.edu/communitycampaign.
- Go to the "Give Today" section and select your type of payment.
As in past years, 3 percent of the total campaign proceeds will be donated to an "adopted" Title I school. This year, it is Williwaw Elementary School in East Anchorage. This donation, in lieu of incentivizing your pledges, is used in areas of greatest need - library books, instructional technology - to help keep students engaged and prepare them to be successful UAA students.
