Youth Challenge: Give What You Can

I’m Keith Reinhart, Youth Campaign Chair for United Way KW. I’m also a university student, so I get that cash can be tight when you’re in school. Making a big donation to United Way KW probably isn’t in the cards right now. But if you think that means you can’t do something good for our community, you’re wrong.

Every little bit helps. It’s a proven fact. So go ahead and keep your rent money, but how about going without a coffee every once in a while, or skipping that last drink you shouldn’t have had anyway? I know a way you can turn that small change into something really big.

Quiz time - what’s 600 X 5? Right, 3,000. More importantly, $3,000 to support those in need in our community if 600 of you text “UCHANGE” to 45678 to donate $5 to United Way KW. The amount gets added to your phone bill. (My grade school math teacher would be so proud if he saw this.)

So that’s the challenge I’m issuing to every youth in the KW area. I want 600 of you – at least 600 of you - to make that next message really count by texting “UCHANGE” to 45678 to donate $5 to United Way KW. Then text your friends and ask them to do the same. You’ll all be helping to create sustainable social change in our community.
 
Remember, text “UCHANGE” to 45678 to donate $5 to United Way KW. Don’t wait, do it today!

Keith
