The University of Southern Indiana and the United Way of Southwestern Indiana would like to thank USI employees for their contribution to the 2009 USI United Way Campaign. These contributions helped raise over $37,000 for the Southwestern Indiana community, compared to $28,000 in 2008 and $32,000 in 2007. Such a considerable increase in giving demonstrates the powerful impact USI can have on the surrounding region.

The 2009 USI United Way Campaign ran from October 26 to November 4, and during this time USI employees donated their money and time to make the campaign a success. Financial contributions went to 70 local programs in 33 agencies that work to meet critical needs of individuals and families in Vanderburgh, Spencer, and Warrick counties.

As part of the campaign, local vendors donated a variety of prizes for winning contributors. The United Way would like to thank Coldstone Creamery, Fazoli's, First Avenue Car Wash, Grease Monkey, Hilltop Inn, Holiday World, Lic's Deli & Ice Cream, McDonalds, New Harmony Theatre, ProMark, Simon/Eastland Mall, SouthWest Graphics, The Loft, USI, USI Athletics, the USI Bookstore, the USI Theatre, and Walther's Golf & Fun for their donations. Winners of the prizes were Rachel Acker, Susan Ahmad, Yvonne Beavin, Vicki Bierley, Jennifer Briggs, Virginia Bryant, Tim Buecher, Denise Bulger, Debbie Butler, Keith Carter, Thuy DaoJensen, Deanna Engler, Linda Evinger, Patricia Flake, Peggy Harrel, Ronnie Jessie, Andrew Jones, Jean Kuebler, Charmaine McDowell, Jane Meyer, Melissa Miller, Rebecca Miller, Jimmy Prior, J. Wayne Rinks, Susan Ruholl, Diana Rumsey, Kim Schauss, Deborah Schmuck, Suzanne Schroeder, Jeff Seyler, Marlene Shaw, Mary Swartz, Curtis Truitt, Shirley Webster, and Katherine Weinzapfel.

In these tough economic times, more of our friends, relatives, neighbors, and coworkers than ever are reaching out for support from the United Way and its member agencies. Because of the generosity of the USI community, the United Way can continue to assist people in need throughout Southwestern Indiana. Together, USI and the United Way have made a difference.
