LIVE UNITED Live United Public Service Announcement United Way’s Live United Campaign Runs September 17- November 15 With gas prices soaring, grocery costs increasing, and the housing market in decline United Way was concerned on how to set a realistic campaign goal this year. Even in tough times, United Way’s new LIVE UNITED campaign makes it easy for everyone to get involved-by giving, advocating or volunteering. LIVE UNITED A credo. A mission. A goal. A constant reminder that when we as individuals think outside ourselves, we have the power to facilitate change. When we think of others’ lives as linked to our own, our compassion grows. When we reach out a hand to one we influence the condition of all. We build the strength of our neighborhoods. We bolster the health of our communities. And we change the lives of those who walk by us every day. TO GIVE. TO ADVOCATE. TO VOLUNTEER. Because united we stand. United, we elevate. United, we persevere. United, we move through. Above. And beyond. United, we change what we see in the world. The Live United campaign is about the power of unity. We ask that all of you be part of the movement to advance the common good right here in Island County. Because united we change what we see in our community. GIVE. United Way’s Community Fund is an easy and powerful way to create lasting change in our own community.
