Thank You Omaha and Lincoln Area United Way Donors!
A special thanks to workplace donors who contributed to the United Way of the Midlands and United Way of Lincoln and Lancaster County campaigns. Community Health Charities of Nebraska is a fundraising partner with these two United Way federations, and our health agency members benefit from United Way contributions made to the United Way Fund. Thanks to all who participated in their workplace campaigns.

With about 80 percent of CHC-NE workplace giving campaigns complete across Nebraska, the 2008 Campaign Partnership for Health is running about the same in gifts and pledges as last year. Given the challenges in the economy, this is a good response to charitable giving to health this year. We are thankful to all the employees at workplaces large and small for their donations. Thanks also to the business owners and managers who see the value of workplace giving, and offer a campaign as an added benefit to their work force.
