Monday, April 24 - LET THE SUN SHINE DAY

If you can, turn off the lights for an hour, or unplug an appliance you are not currently using. The United Way Impact Fund assists many of our community members struggling to pay utility bills among other needs. Consider donating to United Way’s Impact Fund.

Tuesday, April 25 - ONE OF A KIND DAY

Let’s each perform an act of kindness! Your unique contribution to help your neighbor is what makes for a stronger community. Being kind and doing good also boost your mental health, one of United Way’s focus areas for improving life in Lincoln and Lancaster County.

Wednesday, April 26 - ON THE SAME PAGE DAY

Help us raise $2,500 for the Virtual Book Drive! That will put 100 books into the hands of students right here in Lincoln and Lancaster County! Books at home propel a child forward in their education. Reading for just 15 minutes a day exposes a child to over 1 million words of text in a year.

Thursday, April 27 - PEP RALLY DAY

Attend United Way’s Annual Meeting and help kick off our 100th year of serving the community. As our community has changed over the last 100 years, United Way has been there to meet the needs of individuals and families who have fallen behind and just need a helping hand. RSVP to Lauren at ldaake@unitedwaylincoln.org or 402-441-0096.

Friday, April 28 - LIVE UNITED DAY

Proudly wear your Live United gear to show your involvement in creating a stronger Lincoln and Lancaster County. When we all work together, we can accomplish amazing things that advance the common good for all members of our community.
