THANK YOU, BERKS COUNTY!
In an outstanding show of generosity, Berks Countians surpassed our $10.5 million goal to contribute $11,016,267 to the 2022 Campaign.
Joe Hartz, who co-chaired the Campaign with his wife, Dana, shared his gratitude for the thousands of donors who made this possible. “These are challenging times for many, and together, we are helping people when they need it the most. That is the power of LIVING UNITED.”
“Each one of our donors is a source of inspiration,” said Tammy White, United Way President. “By supporting United Way, they turn their compassion into action, and we are so grateful.”
All dollars raised in the 2022 Campaign will support health and human service needs in the coming year, impacting 150,000 local people.
