General Mills & Wells Fargo Honored by United Way of America
Wells Fargo and General Mills, Inc were recently honored at
United Wayof America ’s Staff Leaders Conference with the Corporate Philanthropy, Community Volunteerism and Community Impact Summit Awards. United Way of America’s Summit Award is the organization’s highest national honor for a corporation, recognizing a company’s outstanding commitment to
United Wayand communities across the country. Honored companies exemplify corporate social responsibility and measurable, sustainable community impact through corporate and employee leadership, financial contributions, and volunteerism.
Locally in Cascade County , both General Mills and Wells Fargo annually serve as pacesetter companies for the
United Waycampaign. Pacesetter companies typically set the bar for the success of the local campaign, bringing in typically half of all campaign dollars.
“Wells Fargo is proud to contribute to United Way of Cascade County because we share a common vision for building and maintaining a vibrant, safe, healthy community—an environment that makes Great Falls a great place to live, work and do business,” said John Koppelman, Wells Fargo Community Banking president for Great Falls. “We’re both dedicated to three key areas: building strong stable families, promoting health and increasing self-sufficiency.”
“General Mills’ mission is Nourishing Lives, and we strive to also nourish the communities in which we live and work. Our partnership with
United Wayis an important way that we can help nourish the lives of families and children in Cascade County and around the nation,” said Heather Roos, General Mills United Way 2008 Campaign Chair. "We are proud to be a strong supporter of
United Way."
