Thank Goodness IC is Fabulous! As of Friday afternoon (Nov. 16), our Ithaca College United Way campaign stands at 73% of our fundraising goal, with $47,419 pledged. 192 members of our campus community - including some generous retirees! - have stepped up so far, with participation from 37 first-time donors, almost 20% of those responding so far. That's tremendous, but we have still only heard from about 11% of our campus community. C'mon!! What are you waiting for...?
