For more than 50 years, Northern Arizona University has partnered with United Way of Northern Arizona (UWNA) to raise money to improve the community.<\/p>\n
This year, NAU\u2019s goal is to raise $47,000, and everyone is encouraged to contribute. Donations can be made in several ways on NAU\u2019s United Ways website<\/a>: NAU faculty and staff can fill out an online form for payroll deduction, or people can fill out an online form to make a credit card or check donation. The last day to donate is Dec. 28.<\/p>\n The nonprofit organization focuses its resources on critical human care needs throughout the community, with the belief that each individual deserves quality education that leads to a stable career which will support a family through retirement and good health. The UNWA board of directors is composed of local volunteers that partner with the local government, businesses, faith community, education, nonprofits and individuals.<\/p>\n For questions about the campaign, contact chairperson Shannon Shoots <\/strong>at Shannon.Shoots@nau.edu<\/a> or board members Karen Pugliesi <\/strong>and Tom Cheng<\/strong> at UWNA@nazunitedway.org<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
