Welcome to your 2025/2026 Foresight Bank Workplace Campaign!

Workplace Campaigns play a crucial role in helping your local United Way make a positive impact in your community.

By participating in Foresight Bank's Workplace Campaign, you will be helping United Way mobilize resources and activate responses on a level that is needed now more than ever. Giving to United Way is the most powerful way to give back to your local community. Instead of supporting a single cause or issue, a gift to United Way improves the conditions of our entire community. Your money also stays in your own backyard. The money you donate to United Way supports local people and programs through volunteer council selected partner agencies. Dollars raised in our community, stay in our community to help build a better place for us all to live, work, and raise our families.
 

Thank you for your continued support of United Way!

 

Through your 2025/2026 Workplace Campaign,
you are able to designate to the United Way in your area.
You do not have to choose a designation. If no designation is chosen, your contribution will go to the areas most in need.
