CareerTech reports nearly $20,000 raised in United Way of Payne County campaign
Summary
A CareerTech representative told the board the agency’s two‑week United Way campaign included staff events and volunteer coordination and raised nearly $20,000 for local United Way services.
Russell Ray summarized Oklahoma CareerTech’s United Way of Payne County campaign for the board, describing a two‑week slate of events organized by a volunteer committee, including a chili and dessert cookoff, live and silent auctions, mini golf, a scavenger hunt and an ice-bucket fundraising challenge. “This year's campaign raised nearly $20,000,” Ray told board members, and he thanked the staff volunteers who organized events and drove participation.
Ray said CareerTech has aligned with the United Way locally for about 40 years and that donated funds support programs providing education, financial stability, disability services, shelter and food assistance. He praised committee organizers and noted the campaign’s success despite rising living costs for employees.
Board members applauded the committee; no formal board action was required on the campaign recap.
