‘We’re all about collective impact’: United Way of Dane County kicks off community campaign
- Sep 18, 2023 United Way of Dane County kicked off its community campaign Monday with its United Carnival.
At the event, people could play games, win prizes and enjoy all sorts of food. Renee Moe, president and CEO of United Way of Dane County, said making it a carnival shows you can have fun while making a great impact.
“We really want to make sure that we’re teaching all of our community about giving, and sometimes philanthropy or volunteerism. They aren’t things that people know a lot about,” she said. “When you can show a community coming together and supportive others being a part of the greater good, it’s an opportunity to help teach and grow our community strengths.”
Moe said bringing people together this way can make waves in the community.
“United Way, we, really have a multiplier effect because we have great relationships,” Moe said. “We know a lot of folks, we listen really intently to the community, we’re able to multiply impacts.”
