Campaign

United Way of Northern BC would like to acknowledge and thank ICBC for sponsoring this year's Campaign Associate, Kyle Flannagan.

Having Kyle onboard will assist United Way of Northern BC to have an increased presence in northern BC during the 2012 Campaign, allowing us to serve our customers more efficiently and effectively.


Overview

The United Way of Northern British Columbia is a leader in bringing together the resources needed to improve lives and strengthen communities.

Each year UWNBC runs a Community Campaign to raise funds to invest in health and social service programs that address community needs for people struggling to get back on their feet, people who are working to get healthy and stay health, physically and mentally, and kids.

UWNBC's campaign period runs from the beginning of September to the end of December. Together hundreds of volunteers and thousands of donors across northern BC from the business, labour, private and public sectors, and organizations both large and small participate in the Community Campaign to strengthen the region in which they live.

UWNBC relies on the generosity of its donors to help transform lives and build a strong foundation for communities in northern BC.

For further information on how to become involved in UWNBC's Community Campaign please contact Lesley Anderson, Manager, Resource Development, by clicking here or by phone at (250) 561-1040.

Please join us. We believe in our communities.
