Univest Corporation Launches Caring for the Arts Giveaway; Local Nonprofit Will Win $1,000
SOUDERTON, Pa., March 7, 2013 - Univest
Corporation today announced the first Caring for Community Giveaway
of 2013, a contest that will award $1,000 to a local, nonprofit
arts organization. As part of its Committed to Local
philanthropic giving program, Univest hosts a contest four times
each year through its Facebook page in which it asks customers and
community members to nominate local nonprofits that deserve
financial assistance. Through the Caring for Arts Giveaway,
Univest will award $1,000 to a deserving, local, nonprofit, arts
organization selected by the members of the community it
serves.
Here's how it works:
- Identify a local, nonprofit, arts organization that deserves
the $1,000 donation.
- Nominate the group by posting a comment on the Univest Facebook
page, www.facebook.com/UnivestCorporation,
explaining why the group should win the money.
- The nonprofit arts organization with the most posts at the end
of the contest will be the winner.
The contest launches on March 8, 2013 at 8:00 a.m. and will run
through March 25, 2013 at 8:00 a.m. To be eligible to win the
$1,000, the nonprofit group must be a registered 501 (c) (3)
organization that aligns with the Univest giving
guidelines and operates somewhere in the Univest service area
of Bucks, Chester and Montgomery counties and the Lehigh Valley. We
encourage you to be an advocate and nominate your favorite local,
nonprofit, arts organization for a chance to win $1,000.
