Sarasota County Schools announces this year’s United Way Campaign, an awareness and fundraising partnership between the school district and United Way Suncoast, benefitting families in our community. The campaign will take place district-wide from October 1 to October 31, 2019.

United Way Suncoast serves the people of DeSoto, Hillsborough, Manatee, Pinellas and Sarasota counties by operating and funding support services and initiatives to help create stronger, more vibrant communities. The organization advocates for the education and financial stability of every person in the community through educational programs that give children the skills to succeed and help adults achieve long-term financial stability. Sarasota County Schools appreciates and supports community-centric organizations, like United Way Suncoast, that share our vision for equipping the young people of today to be the empowering leaders of tomorrow.

All of Sarasota County Schools’ employees can voluntarily participate in the campaign by making a one-time donation, or an on-going donation through a paycheck deduction. Staff, students, visitors, volunteers and parents are also welcome to donate their change in support of families in the community. Schools will be hosting change collections, individual events and fundraisers to foster the philanthropic spirit in their school community. Anyone interested in participating should contact their child’s school to learn more.
