The Graham Area United Way has raised 65% of its $100,000 goal for this year's fundraising campaign, according to the organization.
The campaign will benefit seven local nonprofits: Bethel Children's Daycare, Graham Backpack Buddies, Graham Crisis Center, Meals on Wheels, Senior Citizens Center, Virginia's House and Young County 4-H. Individuals and businesses can give by donating or buying raffle tickets for a trailer. Tickets are available from United Way volunteers or at Graham Savings and Loan, Graham Interbank and First State Bank.
Raffle tickets must be purchased by Nov. 12, and the drawing will be held Nov. 17. The organization asks that 2026 pledges and donations be made by Dec. 3. Details are available at grahamareaunitedway.com/donate or by email at info@grahamareaunitedway.com.
