$2-million Goal Set For 2016

The United Way of Sarnia-Lambton has announced its campaign goal for 2016. The organization is hoping to raise $2-million during the 60th annual fundraising campaign, which officially kicks off in September with the Day of Caring. Last year, donations surpassed the set $1.95-million goal and reached the $2-million mark for the first time, which allowed for an increase in funding for seniors programs. The United Way of Sarnia-Lambton funds 20 agencies providing 37 programs and services to the community.
