The Northwoods United Way recently accepted a $2,010 contribution from the School District of Rhinelander employees.
"The SDR employees have a history of supporting the Northwoods United Way and the agencies we partner with," Northwoods United Way executive director Nancy Sattler said in a press release. "This check will help us achieve our 2019 Fundraising Goal."
The school district employees held their annual campaign for the Northwoods United Way from Oct. 10 to Nov. 15.
"We are proud that our donation to Northwoods United Way has been increasing every year," said Mike Cheslock, the district's community education coordinator. "A special thank you goes out to all staff who contributed to this year's campaign. The District is proud to support United Way's efforts to offer programming that helps families and children in the north woods."
The Northwoods United Way works to advance the common good by focusing on the building blocks for a quality life: health, income and education, the release states.
It serves community members in Vilas, Oneida, and Forest Counties. Currently, the Northwoods United Way provides funding to 26 agencies in the three counties.
"We are in the middle of our 2019 pledge campaign and are asking all businesses and private donors to help us achieve our goal," Sattler said. "The money raised by the Northwoods United Way will be used to fund agencies in 2020 within the counties we serve."
