This exciting addition from last year will return for a second time. Items donated by Advancement staff will be set up for a silent auction during the Chili Potluck.
Items will be on display leading up to the day however bids will only be taken during the lunch (so be sure to send a friend if you can’t make it!).
If you have any gifts or services to donate to the auction please feel free to drop them off to Alex Farley or email her to let her know. More details to come.
Back by popular demand is the “backwards” potluck where we bring the food, and you enjoy all the chili you can eat for $5 a ticket.
For those of you who like one-stop shopping and/or don’t carry cash, a reminder you can use Advancement’s United Way Ultimate Ticket: you choose all the activities you’d like to participate in, and pay all at once via e-transfer. Convenient and easy. (Transparency and record-keeping procedures have been established.)

Attendees will each get a personalized photo session for up to 10 minutes in length and these photos will be edited and processed afterward for an even better product. The best variety of these photos (usually 3-5) will be sent out within a couple of weeks by our experienced photo editors. These photos can be used however you please, such as for LinkedIn, Facebook, business cards, or your portfolio.
As part of the Faculty of Science’s United Way fundraising efforts this year with the help of UW catering, they are having a Poutine Bar.
The Poutine Bar will be located just outside of B1(Science CND).
The cost for a Poutine is $ 5.50 for regular Poutine and $ 6.00 for Poutine with Sausage.
It will be held on Wednesday October 29, 2014. We need to confirm numbers by October 22,2014 so that we have enough Poutine for all.

We have a special twist to this event this year: bring your own container to fill and take home to share with your family (if you imply you made it yourself, we’ll never tell).

The Office of the President and the Office of the Vice-President, Academic & Provost have gotten into the spirit of the United Way campaign with a fundraising campaign as cute as it is courageous. Here are the University's senior leaders, as you've probably never seen them before.

United Way KW launches their 2014 campaign with a plane pull competition!
This event hosted community members and organizations at the Waterloo-Wellington Flight Centre and Waterloo Region Airport to compete at pulling the Mako Shark Plane! This event included a continental breakfast and the introduction of the Campaign Champion Amanda Knapp!
With a focus on the difference United Way makes in the community, there was a clear understanding of how United Way impacts everyone. This year, volunteers are encouraged to increase their donations by 6% to reach new targets!
