Only one more week until we officially launch this year’s United Way campaign on Monday, November 14th! Visit Sheridan’s’ United Way website and watch for our official campaign newsletter, the Uniter, to stay up-to-date on campaign events and learn about how you can support our campaign.
Pledging – New System
New this year, pledging for Sheridan’s United Way campaign will take place through the United Way’s secure online pledging portal. The portal can be accessed through a customized personal link that will be automatically sent to all employees through the online system on November 14th, and in an additional reminder email. Watch your inbox for more information. Paper pledge forms will also be available through the Sheridan United Way website.
Make your pledge before Friday, November 18th and you’ll be eligible to win a variety of excellent prizes, including Theatre Sheridan, days off with pay, and more!
Silent Auction
The United Way silent auction (open to employees) is always a big hit, but to make it successful we need your help. Please consider donating an item to the auction. Get creative! We’ve had fly fishing lessons, culinary experiences, cottage getaways, artwork, cooking utensils…you name it! Please email nancy.heath@sheridancollege.ca with a description of the item and she will coordinate with you to get the item listed on the auction site.
Bidders: The silent auction opens for bidding on Wednesday, Nov. 16 and closes on Wednesday, Nov. 23 at noon. Good luck!
Spaghetti Lunches and Samosas
Break (garlic) bread with your department/teams at one of Sheridan’s United Way Spaghetti Lunches. We encourage our employees to buy a delicious plate of food, contributed generously by Chartwells, and take a moment to connect with your teams while supporting the campaign. For only $5 you will get a plate of spaghetti with veggie or meat sauce, garlic bread, salad and a drink. New this year, we will also be holding SAMOSA SALES to kick off the campaign!
Monday, November 14th, 11:30 – 1:00pm: Samosas for United Way (Davis campus – B-wing; Trafalgar campus – Marketplace; HMC – by the plant wall).
