Holiday Headstart at the McKinley Mall
The fifth annual Holiday Headstart took place on Saturday November 22nd, 2008 at the McKinley Mall. Over 300 shoppers enjoyed free entertainment, discounts, special deals, numerous chances to win valuable prizes, and the opportunity to do holiday shopping, one week early. All proceeds and sponsorship dollars generated a sum of around $6,000 after expenses. This event has now raised over $30,000 over the past five years with all of those dollars going toward our cause of supporting effective prevention programs that help to keep our kids away from alcohol, tobacco, and other dangerous drugs.

WYRK-FM "Wheel of Prizes" at the Erie County Fair
Over the past sixteen years, WNY United has partnered with WYRK-FM for the "Wheel of Prizes" promotion at the Erie County Fair. For a donation of $1.00, fairgoers spin a wheel hoping to land on the "Country Star of the Day" and win a prize. This year, a sum of $12,835 was raised. The "Wheel" has now generated over $140,000 for WNY United since the promotion began benefiting our cause in 1992.
