CHENANGO COUNTY – More than a month before the end of this year’s Chenango United Way campaign, the organization has already hit 84 percent of its goal.

Although the campaign runs another month, the CUW has already received approximately $390,600 in donations, and with many corporations still completing their internal campaigns, the campaign season is off to a great start.

“A lot of the company campaigns we’ve seen so far have been substantially higher this year than they were last year,” said Executive Director Elizabeth Monaco. She explained that participation at many of the companies is up this year. “So many of the companies are exceeding their goal, and we still have several more coming in over the next week or so.”
