United Way of Dane County officially kicked off its 2023 Community Campaign on Monday at Breese Stevens Field on Madison’s East Side.
The United Way hosted 450 volunteers for an afternoon of family-friendly activities as the group packed more than 4,000 paper product packs to be distributed to nonprofit partners at Community Action Coalition, WayForward Resources, Second Harvest Foodbank and Porchlight.
“The energy at Breese Stevens Field was contagious. It just goes to show how much we can accomplish when we come together as The Power of Many. Working for All. I’m so grateful for the community support as we innovate forward and continue to uplift family well-being in Dane County,” said Pete Vogel, president and CEO of Vogel Bros. Building Company and United Way 2023 campaign chair, in a statement. “We can’t wait to build from this momentum into this year’s campaign season.”
