Days of Caring:
A long tradition with United Way has been matching teams of volunteers – often from donor businesses and agencies – to nonprofits needing helping hands with painting, landscaping, and other one-time hands-on help. In 2011, Days of Caring was expanded from a three-day effort to a threemonth effort. There were 11 projects completed with over 3,000 hours of volunteer support.
Donor dollars snapshots
Two popular projects involve hand labor – and lots of fun! Parents are a child’s first and most important teacher, and they know that children learn through play and exploration. These calendars provide easy-to-implement activities that fit into a family’s busy daily routine and also help get children ready for school. Boeing donated 1,200 of these creative tools; United Way distributed them to libraries and childcare centers. Habitat for Humanity is helping to build houses for families who are investing their own ‘sweat equity’ and US Bank employees add their own sweat to the project.
Target of Burlington donated two decorated holiday trees to United Way of Skagit County as part of the Target Share-a-Tree Program. United Way distributed the trees and ornaments worth an estimated $60 each to a young mother at Northwest Youth Services, and to Community Action Agency’s Family Development Center.
Camp Kirby has been a Skagit tradition for hundreds of kids. The “older kids” from Skagit State Bank help out by cleaning & painting the facility.

Where does the money come from? Top 20 Workplace Campaigns
The workplace campaign is the backbone of United Way’s annual fund drive. More than 60 businesses/ agencies invite a Loaned Executive or Campaign Associate to speak to employees and volunteers; these businesses agree to deduct employees contributions from regular paychecks. Some of the businesses match their employee’s gifts and/or make a Corporate Contribution. Payroll deduction is a tremendous way to support the community….and it adds up. The Top 20 Workplace Campaigns include businesses and individuals listed below and on the next page. Together they represent almost 70% of the 2011 campaign – and we are grateful to them all.
