Great Rivers United Way nearly 50% to goal

Raised over $1 million already

Over 250 listened in this morning as the Great Rivers United Way announced its latest campaign goals at a breakfast at the Radisson.

Jamie Korn said it’s about $15,000 higher than last year.

The 14 pacesetter companies have given that goal a good kick start this year, raising over $1 million already (48.7 percent of the total goal).

Korn says the deadline to hit that mark is January 31.
