Alliance- Runza Restaurants in Alliance, Chadron, Gering and Scottsbluff raised $2400 for United Way of Western Nebraska during their Runza Day for United Way on Tuesday, November 8th. The dollars raised will help fund non-profit agencies and programs serving local families in the areas of health, education and financial stability, as well as allow United Way to continue community impact projects focusing on food insecurity, homeless prevention, providing basic needs for families in need and fighting poverty in the communities they serve.
The donation from Runza brings United Way to just over 30% of their campaign goal raised. The goal for this year's campaign is $400,000 for the community. Donations to United Way stay in the community to help local families including children and seniors. Donations to United Way may be made online at uwwn.org or mailed to United Way 1517 Broadway, Suite 106 Scottsbluff, NE 69361 or P.O. Box 617 Alliance, NE 69301. United Way works hard to be good stewards of their resources ensuring that money raised stay in the local community.
