For a few weeks in October, Comcast has our United Way employee giving campaign. I have to say, each year that we do this campaign, I am increasingly impressed and overwhelmed by the generosity of our employees. We are on pace to reach our participation goal, and are already close to beating last year’s total pledges.
What I find most interesting is what motivates our employees to give. For some it’s that United Way has helped a friend or family member. For others it’s the fact that United Way helps out such a variety of organizations in our communities, or that the dollars given stay local. Still others say it’s just a chance to give back because it’s the right thing to do.

As an employee of 211info I see how the United Way of the Columbia-Willamette helps us connect people to the community services they need. We wouldn't be successful without UWCW and that is why I give.
Keep up the good work!
