Last year, Andis Company associates set a record raising funds for the United Way of Racine County. This year, they have surpassed last year’s contribution by a substantial 6 percent.
“Each year our associates prove with their time and contributions how committed we all are to our community and to people in need,” says Matthew K. Andis, the company’s president. “Our United Way Committee did a fantastic job in running a campaign that was motivating, successful and full of fun events.”
For the second year in a row, creativity combined with a generous spirit helped achieve this year’s record- setting donation. Andis Company associates held numerous year-round fundraising efforts to inspire giving, including a silent auction, a car wash and raffles for sporting event tickets.
A significant portion of this year’s funds came from 30 Andis business partners who responded to the company’s donation letter with gifts ranging from $100 to more than $1,000. Those that donated $1,000 and above are Gold United Way Partners: CH Robinson, Chase Products Company, Harig Manufacturing Corporation, Horton Group, Lapham-Hickey Steel and New Berlin Plastics.
