Description

 

The United Way of Greater Toronto (UWGT) is the largest non-governmental funder and supporter of social services in the Greater Toronto Area (GTA). For more than 45 years, employees at the Region of Peel have been raising funds to support United Way through an annual United Campaign. Funds raised support individuals and families living in poverty in our communities.  

Our residents have been starkly affected by economic downturns, unaffordability and the inequities that divide our community. Peel employees help mend the gaps in our social safety net and unite under a worthy cause.

The funds raised support the United Way by delivering services that meet urgent needs for the residents of Peel that have been directly affected by economic downturns, unaffordability and inequities that divide the community.

In 2022, our Employee Campaign raised $242,658. Our annual United Way pledge funds Campaign reaches more than 5,000 employees. The continued success depends on contributions from sponsors who generously donate items to support the Campaign.

Everyone deserves to be treated fair and equal in society. 

This year, our Campaign will run for five weeks starting in the month of September 2023. Our annual United Way pledge funds Campaign reaches more than 5,000 employees. The continued success depends on contributions from sponsors who generously donate items to support the Campaign.

As our Campaign doesn't kick off until the Fall, we would appreciate if the expiry dates on any prize donations can be made for December 31, 2024, so that the prize winners have time to use the donation.
