Lorain, Ohio, July 17, 2024: United Way of Greater Lorain County has launched a unique fundraising campaign called Together on $10, running until Friday, July 26, 2024. The campaign encourages individuals to donate $10 and then ask 10 friends to do the same, effectively amplifying the initial gift tenfold.
Funds raised through Together on $10 will support United Way’s Community Collaboratives and Impact Initiatives, which focus on the health, education, and financial stability for residents.
“Contributions, when combined, can make a significant difference to families in need,” said Colleen Walts, marketing and engagement director at United Way of Greater Lorain County. “Our campaign’s success depends on supporters reaching out to their friends and family to make a gift. We are calling on kind-hearted individuals to help make a difference locally and spread awareness of our Community Collaboratives and Impact Initiatives.”
The goal of Together on $10 is to reach 1,000 individuals asking for at least a $10 donation, raising a total of $10,000 to assist local families who are living paycheck-to-paycheck and are one disaster away from financial crisis.
