Partnership Opportunities
Every year the United Way of Brandon & District offers many different opportunities for partnership. Join us today and make an investment in the community in which you live and do business! Not only will partnering an event or program help build a great city, it is an opportunity for your organization to achieve its employee engagement, community investment and branding goals.
If you are interested in becoming a partner with us or would like more information on our sponsorship opportunities please contact Areta Donnelly by phone at 204-571-8929 or by email at areta@brandonuw.ca.
Events
At the United Way of Brandon & District we have a number of special events to help offset our operational costs to ensure that every dollar donated from our donors goes directly back into the community.
Our events are all about fun and community engagement. We feel that none of them would be possible if it weren’t for the people that call our community home. Every year we are humbled by the amount of people that attend and support our events. Whether it’s our Annual Golf Tournament, Fall or Spring Garage Sale, Annual Lip Sync Battle or our Annual Christmas Tree Auction, our community always comes together to give back to a good cause.
For more information on any of our events, please visit the individual event pages, email events@brandonuw.ca, or call 204-571-8929.
