Spartanburg Water employees exceed United Way fundraising goal

Spartanburg Water is celebrating a huge success, surpassing its 2020 United Way Campaign goal by more than $5,200! It’s a fitting accomplishment for this year’s theme: Teaming Up for Success!

Spartanburg Water employees raised a total of $59,287.20 for the United Way of the Piedmont. The money will make a positive impact on the lives of many throughout Spartanburg, Cherokee, and Union Counties.

In addition to our mission to provide quality drinking and wastewater services to our region in a reliable manner, it is also a priority of Spartanburg Water to invest in the community we serve. Our employees stepped up in a big way – volunteering to donate a portion of their paychecks to the United Way of the Piedmont and to the people and organizations they assist.

Spartanburg Water is proud to contribute to this year’s campaign and honored to once again join the United Way in the fight to help those in need in the local community.

“Once again the employees of Spartanburg Water showed their passionate support for our community by exceeding our goals for the 2020 United Way Campaign,” said Roger A. Nutt, 2019 Volunteer Coordinator. “Every year our employees continue to show their love for the people of Spartanburg by donating hundreds of man-hours and thousands of dollars to help support community needs.  It has certainly been a pleasure to work alongside United Way of the Piedmont in making Spartanburg County a great place to live, work and play.”
