Heartwarming LIVE UNITED Story

"I live united by supporting a family member with mental health issues. By staying in their life providing stability and a safe environment.  By giving encouragement to venture beyond obstacles.  By living united I get to  witness an individual living a normal life.  My choice limits time and energy for other, but I can extend good in the community by simply giving to United Way." - Anonymous

Columbia State Bank in the LIVE UNITED Spirit Yet Again!

Columbia State Bank is making the most of Living United with "How I Live United" paper T-shirts.

Bank employees - managers and tellers alike - invite customers to "join us in the circle where a dollar goes a long way" by contributing for a paper T-shirt.

At Gateway Columbia State Bank (SE 107th and Halsey), paper T-shirts now grace the lobby. Customers have given in amounts of $1, $5, $10, $20, totaling $215 in two weeks.

But don't take our word for it. Stop by and meet tellers Maria Rivera and Candace Clanton and Branch Officer Jodi Richardson, pictured here and donate today.

Milestone for Bi-Mart!

Bi-Mart Corporation reached a milestone this year with their United Way Giving Campaign.

The company has run an annual giving campaign for over 30 years and this year we're thrilled to announce that the 16 stores that make up the Bi-Mart Campaign in the Portland and Vancouver area obtained 100% participation and also reached a new record high in total giving in its support of the community at $95,000!

Bi-Mart Vice President of Operations, Rob Clark and the District’s New Manager Don Kast along with the 16 Store Managers were instrumental in reaching the goal of 100% participation set by its Corporate Headquarters in Eugene.

Way to go Bi-Mart! Your support for the community through United Way is outstanding!
