2009 United Way Campaign a Success

The final results are in! Associated Bank’s all-colleague giving campaign

in support of United Way was a huge success this year. After

everything was said and done, the campaign raised $847,751. This

total exceeded our goal of $825,000 by 2.7%. The grand total can be

broken down as follows:

Total dollars raised through colleague contributions: $497,803

Total dollars raised through fundraisers: $ 55,894

Total dollars raised through online auction: $ 14,054

Total corporate contributions: $280,000

TOTAL $847,751

This year, the service centers (Green Bay, Stevens Point, and LaCrosse) led the way by raising over

$120,000 in colleague donations and pledges.

Throughout the footprint, numerous fundraising activities helped to raise over $55,000 for the

campaign. In the Fox Valley region, jeans days and customer pin-ups alone raised $1,000. The annual

car wash at Green Bay, Hansen Road raised more than $200 as well. Some other unique activities

included cookouts, themed luncheons, a weight loss challenge, prize wheels, bake sales, basket

drawings, and much more.

Such a successful campaign would not have been possible without the organization and dedication of

the 2009 United Way Campaign Committee. Through the hard work of this committee, colleagues

remained engaged and excited about the campaign. Thank you for all your hard work!

In addition, thank you to all colleagues who showed their support for this year’s campaign. Not only was

our monetary goal reached, but participation in Days of Caring activities was up to over 60% this year.

Because of the efforts of the Associated Bank campaign, United Way will be able to continue to foster

improvements and hope through the many organizations and programs it supports.

Thank you for supporting our Associated communities through United Way.
