ANDERSON — The United Way of Madison County has raised $812,000 to date for its 2012 campaign.
The results of the campaign were announced Thursday night during the organization’s annual meeting and dinner event.
The number represents 97 percent of the final 2011 number but falls short of a projected total and goal of $1 million, according to a press release from the Madison County United Way.
Organization President Nancy Vaughan said she urges the public to keep contributing and volunteering despite being short of the goal to this point.
“There is still time to contribute,” Vaughan said. “In this uncertain economic environment, it’s more difficult to project results from the national campaigns, so the more pledges we have in-house, the better we’ll be able to put together our community support budget for 2013.”
