Halfway There: United Way Leeds & Grenville Hits 50% of $900,000 Goal—But the Work Isn’t Done Behind every dollar raised is a story. A child who now has a safe place to go after school. A senior who no longer feels alone. A family who can put food on the table tonight. United Way Leeds & Grenville (UWLG) is proud to share that, thanks to the compassion of our community, we’ve reached 50% of our $900,000 fundraising goal. That’s $450,000 raised—and $450,000 to go. “This milestone is more than a number,” said Pamela Robertson, Cabinet Member at UWLG. “It’s a reflection of the kindness, generosity, and belief in one another that defines Leeds & Grenville. But we’re only halfway to ensuring that every person in our region has the support they need to thrive.” Now, we’re asking: will you help carry us the rest of the way? Every gift —no matter the size— has the power to change a life. Whether it’s a warm meal, a safe shelter, or a listening ear, your support helps deliver hope where it’s needed most. The finish line is in sight, but we can’t cross it without you. Join us, be part of the solution. Every dollar counts, and together, we can make a real, lasting impact.
