Why do we Live United?

We Live United for better educational opportunities, stronger families and a healthier community. Each year the United Way campaign brings together K-State employees, students and local agencies to support three key areas – education, income and health.

This year's K-State United Way campaign, Oct. 28 through Dec. 9, will work to raise $200,000 from at least 1,000 participants. This will build upon record levels achieved in the 2010 campaign:

  • Participation increased 27.8 percent to 814 donors.
  • Gifts increased 17.8 percent to total $115,800.
  • Additional gifts of $8,800 came from 66 retired K-Staters.

Every gift makes a difference, and real change can't happen without you. There are so many reasons to Live United. Find yours.
