Faith Technologies is no stranger to successful United Way campaigns.

Overall, employees contributed more than $47,000 in addition to a $25,000 corporate gift. In the Fox Cities alone, Faith Technologies experienced growth of more than 131 percent in employee contributions with a total donation of more than $41,000.

“As a company we are committed to the communities where we live and work, and partnering with organizations that give back – like United Way – ensures the best use is made of our donation dollars,” said Jim Totzke, executive vice president of operations. “This is our ninth campaign year, and it has been tremendous to see the continued growth and engagement of our employees and leadership team. It’s even more rewarding to be part of a larger community of givers. It’s a community effort, and together we can all make a difference.”
