Resource Development Executive
As the year comes to a close, I am truly amazed by the generosity of so many people that I have had the good fortune to work with in my position as Resource Development Executive at United Way of Salt Lake. I am lucky enough to work with corporate partners that are care about our community and the work that we do. Questar is one of those outstanding partners whose concern for the community is amplified through their financial and compassionate contributions. I found out yesterday that employees and retirees at Questar this year, raised $464,386 for United Way of Salt Lake and Questar shareholders doubled the donation, making the total combined contribution $928,772!
More than 85 percent of all Questar employees gave this year as well as several generous retirees. As result many more people in our communities will be able to participate in United Way initiatives and programs. Our entire community wins when a child succeeds in school, when families are financially stable, and when people are healthy and productive. With generous support from corporate partners, like Questar, we can continue to develop solutions to address these complex issues and continue our mission to improve the lives of the citizens in the communities we serve. I am proud to be a part of Questar’s accomplishments this year as their United Way representative. I have seen firsthand how devoted and supportive Questar and their employees are to making our community a better place for everyone. Questar has shown yet again what it means to LIVE UNITED.
