United Way of Door County hits 10 percent of fundraising goal

Seeing what your donation to the United Way of Door County’s annual campaign could provide to the community was on full display this week. Executive Director Amy Kohnle says they have raised over $100,000 toward its annual campaign goal of $1.2 million in the first three weeks of its annual campaign. The campaign will focus on education, financial stability, and healthy lifestyles for thousands of Door County residents who are in need daily, especially those in the ALICE (Asset-limited, Income-constrained, Employed) population. The United Way was able to showcase a few of those efforts this past week, commemorating of a new affordable home in Sister Bay thanks to a Wisconsin Workforce Innovation grant, celebrating the 10th anniversary of its Door County Partnership for Children and Families, and opening registration for its STRIDE Mighty Teens Fall Youth Program. Kohnle says it is excellent to display how the organization can impact the communities it serves.
 
She adds that they are planning several events in the coming weeks to support their annual campaign efforts, including the 2025 Door County Jeep Run on November 1st.
