Federal Express Campaign Launches Nationwide on September 11

Federal Express is a Global Leadership Partner with the United Way.  They are launching their 2017 United Way Campaign nationwide on September 11th.  They run their campaign through October 31st and are hoping to raise $12,000,000 this year.  They also have a goal that employees will volunteer 30,000 hours of service to the local communities in which theywork.  Federal Express also supports a purple tote campaign.  Employees are asked to fill the tote with needed supplies for a local agency and donate those supplies.  The goal is to have $500,000 in supplies donated this year across the country.  They exceeded that goal last year and employees generously donated almost $1,000,000 in needed supplies! 

We hope that Federal Express employees who live and/or work in Logan County will consider designating a gift through payroll deduction or other to the United Way of Logan County, Illinois.  If any employee is interested in volunteer or purple tote opportunities, please contact the United Way Of Logan County Office at 217-735-4499 or see the list of Our Parner Agencies with contact information onthis web site under the About Us Tab.  Thank you to Federal Express employees for their generosity in the communities in which they live and work and to Federal Express for supporting these activities.
