Welcome to your 2025/2026 Workplace Campaign!

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

By participating in Lucas Group'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.

UW Northwest Illinois

Stephenson, Jo Daviess, and Carroll Counties

When you donate to United Way of Northwest Illinois, you are putting dollars into action in your local communities - helping us provide resources to build stronger, healthier, and more sustainable communities. In 2025, United Way of Northwest Illinois allocated $222,200 to partner agencies and programs that help to support the youth opportunity, healthy communities, community resiliency, and financial security initiatives. All of these dollars have stayed right here where you live, work, and play!

UW Rock River Valley

Winnebago County

Since 2023, United Way of Rock River Valley has been working diligently towards the goal of having 75% of third-grade public school students in Winnebago County be able to read at grade level or above by 2034. From June 2024 to July 2025, United Way of Rock River Valley allocated $1,404,213 to increase childhood literacy by bringing volunteers into childcare centers and classrooms to read aloud, partnering with Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, and mobilizing volunteer reading coaches to set these children up for future success.
