CHAD Celebrates 30-Year Partnership with United Way

CHAD (Combined Health Agencies Drive; www.chadnebraska.org) of Nebraska and United Way are celebrating 30 years of partnering to provide donors in Lincoln and Lancaster County with one combined campaign that serves those impacted by education, income, and health.

“Health is the one cause that affects absolutely everyone in the world regardless of their demographic. We are the only drive in the state that focuses solely on health that affects us all,” said Michelle Grossman, president and CEO of CHAD. “But we also know that those affected by health need support from United Way’s funded partners. That’s why this partnership has been so successful over the past 30 years.”

The CHAD/United Way campaign in Lincoln raises funds through workplace giving and individual donations from caring community members. Together, it funds more than 60 nonprofits that are working together to help those in need.

“It truly provides one unified voice and asks for the largest health and human services campaign to make the community a better place,” said Grossman.

Since its inception, CHAD of Nebraska has raised $58,159,054 for charities who are supporting those in need in the community. To learn more, call (402) 614-8500 or visit www.chadnebraska.org. You can also connect with the organization on social media (@CHADNebraska).
