United Way of Lee County is proud to recognize 54 local businesses and organizations that
supported the 2025 Community Campaign through the 365 Business Giving Program. Together,
these community partners demonstrated the power of local generosity and helped United Way
continue its mission of improving lives across Lee County.
The 365 Business Giving Program provides businesses with an opportunity to support United
Way at a level that best fits their organization. Whether giving as a 365 Member, 365 Partner, or
365 Leader each business plays an important role in creating meaningful change right here at
home.
“Businesses across Lee County continue to show what it means to lead by example,” said
Ashley Richter, Executive Director of United Way of Lee County. “Their generosity allows us to
invest in programs and partnerships that make a real difference in the lives of our neighbors.
We are incredibly grateful for each business that supported our 2025 Community Campaign and
for their commitment to building a stronger Lee County.”
The support of these businesses helps United Way provide resources and opportunities for local
residents through programs such as Summer Eats, Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library, the Mini
Food Center, and community grants to local nonprofit partners. Every dollar raised stays local,
helping address the greatest needs in our community and creating lasting impact.
As United Way prepares to launch its 2026 Community Campaign this fall, the organization
invites businesses of all sizes to join the growing network of community partners investing in
Lee County. Whether a business gives as a 365 Member, 365 Partner, or 365 Leader, every
contribution helps create opportunities and build a stronger future for our neighbors.
