Ambassador Resources

Welcome! Thank you for serving as a Campaign Ambassador at your workplace.

The following resources are from our 2020 campaign - NEW 2021 Resources coming fall 2021!

You provide an essential link between UWSWMN and your fellow employees. This page contains tools and resources to help you run a successful campaign and year-round communications program.

This year, we are offering more virtual suggestions and resources for Ambassadors to engage co-workers in the campaign.  A virtual campaign can be a great way to run an engaging workplace campaign while employees are working remotely or social distancing within the workplace.  Some of the resources below offer virtual opportunities in addition to the traditional options.  If you are in need of anything additional and/or have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to our office at 507-929-2273 or unitedway@unitedwayswmn.org.

Working together with companies and their employees each year, UWSWMN invites people through the workplace campaign to support so many services in our community to help people in need and advance the common good for all. Find downloadable materials for this year's campaign below.
