The campus United Way campaign has reached 90 per cent of its $325,000 goal, say co-chairs Irene Thompson, assistant director of Residence Life, and Prof. Anthony Clarke, assistant vice-president (academic). With just over a week to go, they encourage staff, faculty, retirees and students to provide the remaining $31,000 needed to reach the goal.
You can still submit a pledge form to qualify for the grand prize in the United Way incentive draw Dec. 2. Goliger's Travel has donated a theatre weekend package that includes tickets for two to a Stage West production in Mississauga, overnight accommodation, dinner and breakfast.
Pledge forms are available on the United Way campaign website at www.uoguelph.ca/unitedway.
The website also lists all the early bird prize winners and provides information about the 85 local programs that are supported by United Way Community Services of Guelph and Wellington.
