Spotlight On: United Way Campaign – A Look at Our 2023 United Way Campaign

The United Way mobilizes communities around the world to close gaps and open opportunities so everyone can thrive. Through their global network spanning 37 countries and 1,100 communities, United Way connects partners, donors, volunteers, and community leaders to tackle the root causes of the world’s most complex challenges while making a positive impact in the lives of millions of people. Their main impact areas are health, education, and economic mobility.  

For several years now, PLM has run a campaign each year to raise money for United Way. Our employees have pledged money through paycheck deductions as well as participating in different fundraising activities to raise money toward different United Way network organizations within their communities. We recently concluded this year’s United Way Campaign and thanks to the generosity of our PLM employees we have raised over $229,000! A little over $9,000 of that total was raised through in-person and virtual fundraisers hosted by PLM committee members. Our employees pledged over $89,600 of which PLM matches those pledges $2 to $1 for new employees and $1.50 to $1 for existing employees. Even more noteworthy is that for the third year in a row, we had 100% employee participation, for which we are extremely grateful.
