The United Way of Mower County will officially kick off its annual fundraising campaign with a picnic from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Tuesday at the Mill Pond pavilion.
The agency will provide pizza and cake and will preview campaign materials, announcing the goal to the community. Mandi Lighthizer-Schmidt, executive director of the United Way of Mower County, said it was easy to decide what to do this year.
"The United Way Worldwide is celebrating its 125th anniversary, and what better way to kick off our local campaign than with pizza and cake to thank all our supporters here in Mower County," Lighthizer-Schmidt said.
"The United Way of Mower County began 54 years ago and the commitment by the community to give and improve the lives of those around them has never been stronger. We want to thank each and every donor who has supported us over the years and have a little fun in the middle of the work week. We invite you to come down and join us."
