Schuylkill United Way’s “United We Dine Week” Underway

Campaign raises funds for United Way

As the Schuylkill United Way (SUW) kicks off its 2026 annual campaign and celebrates its 90th year of service in Schuylkill County, the organization is highlighting its newest promotion: United We Dine Week.

The event, which runs through Sunday, Sept. 14, encourages residents to visit participating restaurants knowing that a portion of their purchase will support SUW’s annual campaign.

“United We Dine Week” includes 17 local establishments, each designating specific dates and specials to benefit the United Way.

SUW Executive Director Kelly Malone said, “We are hoping people will use this as a reason to go out and try new things, and because of that to become more aware of Schuylkill United Way and the important work that our 15 partner agencies do in Schuylkill County.”
