Batter up! UBC’s United Way Campaign kicks off

On Oct. 9, the 2012 UBC Community United Way Campaign launched online. Within the first two days of the campaign, the UBC Community raised more than $124,000 toward its $650,000 goal through payroll donations. To celebrate this success and raise awareness of the United Way’s priority areas of senior isolation, bullying and poverty, the 2012 campaign kicked off with the fourth annual Great Pancake Race on Oct. 11 at Koerner Plaza.
