United Way campaign
This year’s United Way campaign will end soon. Campus faculty, staff and retirees play a big role in Missouri S&T’s United Way campaign.

There is still time to donate and help the 20 local, non-profit agencies. You can even designate which agency will receive your donation. For more information and the donation forms, contact Joyce Abbott, 341-4122.
