Tools to Help Run Your 2021 Campaign
While many Employee Giving Campaigns are beginning to shift back to historically traditional campaigns, as we continue to deal with the COVID-19 pandemic, many also continue to operate remotely and electronically. In this 2021 Campaign Toolkit, resources that fit both styles of campaigns are being offered. Please see those resources below and feel free to download and use them to make your campaign as successful as possible.
Remember, when posting anything related to your workplace campaign on social media, please use the hashtag #GiveUnitedLiveUnited so that we can share it and recognize you on our social media channels!
In addition to these tools, United Way staff remain available to assist your campaign in any way.
Contact Octavia Williams for additional assistance or email campaign@unitedwayrrv.org.
