Campaign Center
United Way partners with businesses to allow employees to "give back" to the community.
United Way of the Virginia Peninsula partners with local businesses, municipalities, individuals, and other non-profits in a community-wide fundraising campaign that provides necessary resources to programs that address community needs.
Thousands of donors choose the convenience of payroll deduction as their vehicle for giving and, in fact, more than 400 local businesses, from 18 employees to 18,000, conduct United Way workplace campaigns each year. Additionally, students in our public schools take part in the "United Way@School " campaign, which allows students to also contribute to the betterment of their community.
Loaned Executives Offer Critical Assistance
For more than 20 years, the Loaned Executive Program has played a vital role in the success of United Way fund-raising campaigns conducted in the workplace. Through the L.E. Program, companies help augment the small United Way staff during the busy campaign months by either donating an employee or sponsoring a volunteer. This critical assistance affords us the manpower to help more than 300 companies conduct their United Way campaigns.

Serving as Loaned Executives for the 2011 United Way
Campaign are (L-R) Lennie Routten and Bobby Dunston.
We are grateful for the assistance provided by these sponsoring organizations:
- Newport News Shipbuilding
- Bon Secours Mary Immaculate Hospital
- Sentara Health Care
- Riverside Health System
- Community Health Charities of Virginia
