As we get ready to kick off the 2014 United Way campaign at UK, I would like to share with you information about upcoming opportunities to participate either by monetary or community service gifts.

First of all, on Tuesday, September 23, from 12:00 – 1:00 p.m., in Conference Room 318 in POT, we will kick off our Brown Bag sessions for the Fall. The first topic will be United Way and we are raising awareness and funds by hosting a Chili/Soup Cook Off. To participate, please plan to donate $2 to get samplings of soups, chili and deserts prepared by your co-workers. If you are interested in participating, please RSVP here and let us know if you will be bringing your special recipes for chili, soup or a desert. It should be a fun and informative session.

Secondly, there are many opportunities for us to donate our time to help various causes in our local community. If you are interested in participating in community service projects, please let us know by completing this form. We will communicate directly with those who express interest when opportunities are presented to us through United Way of the Bluegrass.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the A&S role in UK’s United Way Campaign, just let me know.

Together, we can make a difference in the lives of so many right here in Lexington and the surrounding communities.
