DONATE NOW

Running a United Way Workplace Campaign unites employees and gives them the opportunity to donate, volunteer and advocate for the community needs that matter most to them.

Workplace Campaigns are about more than raising money; it is about taking part in the change that can happen when we all LIVE UNITED.

Workplace Campaign donations of $200 or more receive a free T-shirt and qualify for entry into our Putting Dreams In Driveways Car Giveaway, sponsored by Lugoff Automotive Group.

Each week for 12 weeks, during the fall campaign, a finalist entry form will be drawn from among the total eligible entries. Each of the finalists will be notified that he or she has qualified for the final drawing and will be invited to participate in the giveaway event where a single winner will win a voucher worth $20,000 that can be applied to any vehicle (new or used) at any dealership in the Lugoff Automative Group family. All finalists must be present at the giveaway event which will be held at Lugoff Ford to receive a key and qualify for the Grand Prize.

Our resources have everything you need to complete a successful Workplace Campaign.

Please contact Lori Arledge for details, supplies, and a Workplace Campaign presentation.

Leadership Givers contribute an annual gift of $500 or more and become a member of the Palmetto Leadership Society.
