United Way takes annual campaign to Door County's most famous rooftop

To reach its annual campaign goal of $1.2 million, the United Way of Door County is taking its efforts straight to the top. United Way of Door County Board President Michelle Lawrie will be atop the famous grass-covered rooftop of Al Johnson’s Swedish Restaurant, in hopes of raising at least $5,000 for the annual campaign. By raising the $1.2 million, the United Way of Door County hopes to address the needs of the 30 percent of Door County residents who struggle from paycheck to paycheck. United Way of Door County Executive Director Amy Kohnle hopes that by having Lawrie play the part of a goat for a few hours, the organization can raise essential funds and showcase how those donations can benefit residents in the Sister Bay area.

 

Lawrie will be on the roof of Al Johnson’s Swedish Restaurant from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m. You can find information on how you can donate. The Raise the Roof event is just one of the many ways you can donate to the United Way with a fun twist added to it. This Saturday is the second of three weekends where celebrity cheese mongers will staff Wisconsin Cheese Masters to support the organization.
