# Seneca's United Way Campaign surpasses it's goal

Between October 12 and November 5, 2021, Seneca came together to support our surrounding communities through giving and accepting the GetUP Challenge. Over the 4 week campaign and with Team Seneca's GetUP fundraising, Seneca raised over $62,000 dollars and with an additional generous gift of $5,000 from the Seneca Student Federation, our 2021 campaign total surpassed it's goal and reached over $67,000 raised.

13 Seneca employees signed up with Team Seneca to complete 280 minutes of activity in two weeks. Within the team, the   formed a crew and challenged  to see who could raise more.

Between November 1 - 14, the Faculty of Continuing Education and Seneca Business were neck and neck. All together Team Seneca raised $3,215.  Of that, FCET raised $845 and Seneca Business raised $795. The overall top individual fundraiser was [Tracy Macmaster](https://employees.senecapolytechnic.ca/people/tracy-macmaster) who raised $725!

Thank you to all who have donated and participated in this year's United Way Campaign. We are proud to help our surrounding communities move from poverty to possibility.
