Community Campaign

 Welcome to our Community Campaign

The Stephen E. Garner Day of Caring Food and Personal Care Items Drive was a great success with our community donating more than 7,000 pounds of non-perishable food and personal care items. We also accepted 12 large boxes of school supplies for local students and 11 large boxes of personal care, cleaning supplies, and non-perishable food items for flood relief efforts.

Campaign Co-Chairs Mary & John Gutenberger and Nancy Fuhr Bonn & Fred Bonn announced the $2,151,000 Community Campaign Goal along with UWTC's 90th anniversary year.  

Thank you to our sponsors: Cornell Orchards, Ithaca Coffee Company, MaineSource, Panera Bread, and Wegmans

A special thank you to Gadabout Transportation Services for providing the bus that visited TC3, Ithaca College, and Cornell University to collect donations as part of the 2nd Annual Stuff the Bus for School Supplies Drive.
