NDSU has completed a successful 2010 United Way universitywide campaign. The effort totaled nearly $122,400.
Char Goodyear, NDSU employee campaign coordinator and assistant to the vice president for university relations, said 522 campus contributors made donations to the campaign, which finished slightly below its $128,000 goal.
“Although we didn’t quite make our goal, the generous donations from our employees are greatly appreciated both at United Way of Cass-Clay and especially within our community,” Goodyear said. “Our contributors have made a positive impact on our local area.”
According to Goodyear, NDSU’s campaign received about $118,000 in pledges, $3,140 through fundraisers and $1,250 in other gifts. A year ago, the NDSU campaign totaled $121,925.
The entire campaign by United Way of Cass-Clay raised slightly more than $5 million, a 2.5 percent increase from 2009. The campaign supports the work of 57 agencies and programs. For more information, visit www.uwcc.net.
