United Way launches Match Madness fundraising campaign

The United Way of the Upper Ohio Valley has launched its Match Madness partnership with Bordas & Bordas.

The promotion matches community donations dollar for dollar for up to $15,000 for the month of March.

“Nonprofits are seeing a large decrease in donations this year due to unemployment, restrictions and canceled fundraising events,” said Jessica Rine, executive director, United Way of the Upper Ohio Valley. “This match from our friends at Bordas & Bordas can make up for a significant portion of that loss. We are grateful for the partnership.”

The United Way funds over 40 programs that support community members in Brooke, Ohio, Marshall, Wetzel, Tyler and Belmont counties. Beyond that, the United Way is at the forefront of advocating for nonprofit organizations in the Ohio Valley, promoting giving and encouraging voluntarism.

“Bordas & Bordas is proud to partner with the United Way of the Upper Ohio Valley for Match Madness,” managing partner of Bordas & Bordas Jamie Bordas said. “Giving back to our community is very important, and we look forward to matching the donations made throughout the month.”

Any donation made in the month of March made through UnitedWayUOV.org, the group’s PayPal account or mailed to 1307 Chapline St., Wheeling, WV, 26003, will be a part of Match Madness.
