The early returns are in...

Contributed by Marian Brown on 11/05/12 

... and our fundraising United Way campaign is pulling ahead! As of this morning, the Ithaca College United Way fundraising campaign received another $9,561 in pledges and cash/check payments, making our total campus donations received to date $19,121. That means we have already achieved 29% of our campus fundraising goal! And those results were from getting back pledge cards from only 67 donors - 8 of them first-timers - representing just 4% of our campus employees. The great news is that with so many good folks in our campus community increasing their pledge by even a little bit for this year or donating for the first time, we are up 15% over the same giving rate last year. Way to go, Team IC!
