The Batavia United Way (BUW) is thrilled to announce that their year-end Double Your Donation campaign has exceeded all expectations and raised beyond the goal of $20,100 this year! Local companies served as challenge partners who matched residential donations to exceed this goal. BUW is grateful to these partners who not only supported this campaign, but also support the organization year-round: Ronald Murphy Dentistry, First State Bank, A Accurate Door, Advanced Windows & Siding, Keller Williams Inspire: Mary Bruno & Kari Edwards, and Fontana Capital Partners. The funds raised through this campaign as well as fundraisers throughout the year allow BUW to provide assistance and support to local residents in the areas of health, education, and financial stability by funding over $115,000 in grants to area social service agencies, providing preschool scholarships to qualifying residents, administering the Adopt-A-Family holiday program, supplying emergency rent/utility assistance, as well as a host of other programming.
