United Way Niagara is thrilled to announce that Brad Steeves, President of BeattiesBusiness Products, will return for a second year as the 2024 Campaign Chair.
“For a community to be great, it has to work for everyone living there. With many individuals facing challenges, investing in the social safety net that supports our neighborhoods is more crucial than ever. It’s a core value at Beatties, and it’s something I personally believe in. I have personally witnessed the remarkable efforts of United Way Niagara in supporting and empowering the most vulnerable in our region. It is a privilege to build on the momentum of last year and continue the important work by leading the campaign once more.” – Brad Steeves, President of BeattiesBusiness Products
Last year’s campaign, amid a challenging economic climate, raised an extraordinary $5.289 million under Brad’s leadership. His continued support this year promises to further strengthen our community, ensuring that the vital services and support provided by United Way Niagara can reach even more individuals in need.
“We are so excited to have Brad return for a second year as Campaign Chair. His leadership during the 2023 campaign was admirable, helping us raise a record amount. We couldn’t be happier to have him continue with the United Way team. We are confident that with his dedication and vision, this year’s campaign will be another great one and allow United Way to continue to make a significant impact across the region.” – Frances Hallworth, CEO of United Way Niagara
