How can you join in the fun?
Your club or organization can become a "Dollar-A-Duck" sales partner and earn money for your own projects while helping the United Way. For every duck sold by your team, United Way will rebate one dollar per duck to your organization. Teams that sell 1,000 ducks will earn a $250 bonus and the sales team with the highest average will win a $500 prize!
All you have to do is complete a "Dollar-A-Duck" agreement, complete the roster of your sales team, and send it to the United Way of the Kearney Area.
