The Big Give

United Way is excited to announce The Big Give kicks off on July 10!

While this event is technically taking place on one day, so much more is involved in The Big Give before we cross the finish line and deliver thousands of bags of school supplies to schools throughout Kosciusko and Whitley counties.

You can get involved as an individual by picking up a bag to fill with school supplies at the United Way office at 119 E. Center St. Suite A in Warsaw or at the Whitley County Consolidated Schools Administration offices at 107 N Walnut St. in Columbia City.

You can also involve your entire office, workplace, family, sports team, or friend group and pick up multiple bags to fill and donate!

Don’t have time to fill bags yourself? We’re happy to accept donations that will be used to purchase much-needed school supplies for area children to use this fall and fill the bags for you.

If you’re an individual, CLICK HERE to register to pick up bags to fill.

If you’re a business, CLICK HERE to register for your bags.

Have questions about how to get involved? Call us at 574-269-2592 or reach out via email at info@uwwk.org.

Bags can be dropped off at the United Way office in Warsaw or the Whitley County Consolidated Schools Administration offices in Columbia City any day up until Drop Off Days (the week of August 1).

The 2023 Big Give is sponsored by Bowen Health Clinic.
