Cincinnati, OH - Community Shares of Greater Cincinnati kicked off its 11th annual fall giving campaign during the first week of September. Community Shares provides an opportunity for Cincinnatians to support causes and charities they care most passionately about.
Community Shares’ 2006 workplace giving campaign established another one-year record with a 10% increase in pledges. At the 70+ private, public and nonprofit workplaces that conducted campaigns, employees pledged nearly $300,000 to support the work of Community Shares’ member organizations.
“As the new Campaign Director I look forward to working with our amazingly generous community to drive community support levels to new heights! As a young professional nothing is more rewarding than being pivotal in raising awareness and investment in the critical nonprofit sector in Greater Cincinnati,” said Chris Lawson, the new Campaign Director of Community Shares.
