After another record-breaking campaign, Manitoba Blue Cross is honoured to receive United Way Winnipeg’s Campaign Chair's award – the fourth year in a row we’ve done so.
“We are thrilled to be recognized for the dedication and the hard work of our team,” said Jackie Tapley, co-chair of the United Way campaign committee. “The staff at Manitoba Blue Cross never ceases to amaze us, and it was an honour to win this award for them.”
The Campaign Chair's Award is the highest level of recognition awarded by United Way Winnipeg and is provided to organizations that demonstrate strong campaign growth and leadership. This year, we were one of only three organizations to take home the award.
In the fall, Manitoba Blue Cross employees raised over $148,000 with company match, breaking the company record for the fourth year in a row.
“Seeing everyone come together to help the United Way, as well as participate in the activities throughout the campaign week, means the world to us,” said Andrea Duncan, co-chair of the committee. “The United Way does such incredible work to help so many people in the city. We are so proud to work with such wonderful people to ensure we do our part.”
