Flag-raising to signal start to United Way campaign

University of Windsor employees have a chance to win an extra day’s vacation during an event to kick off the campus United Way campaign today—Thursday, November 5.

Officials will raise the charity’s flag on the west terrace outside Chrysler Hall Tower beginning at 10:15 a.m. The event will also feature free coffee and doughnut bites. Faculty and staff members will soon receive an e-mail donation request as well as a paper pledge card.
