Peterborough, ON September 15, 2020 – United Way Peterborough & District is so grateful to announce the partnership with the Peterborough Memorial Centre as part of the City of Peterborough’s United Way Giving Campaign. The PMC is hosting a drive-in concert series this upcoming Friday, September 18th and Saturday, September 19th. The Sheepdogs will be performing on Friday night, with special guests The Jim Cuddy Band, while Tim Hicks and Jason McCoy will be performing the Saturday night show. Gates will open at 5pm on both nights, with the main shows starting at 7pm. Tickets are on sale now starting at $65 per person (no minimum amount of people per car), and with every ticket purchased using the code UnitedWayPtbo, a portion of the proceeds are donated back to the United Way to support the community. Visit our social media channels or click here to purchase tickets.

“This is truly a very exciting opportunity for us to be able to offer the great people of this community such an incredible line up of talent during what has been such a difficult year for so many. These concerts will be a fun, safe and responsible way for the people of Peterborough to get out and enjoy some great live music from the safety and comfort of their own vehicle, while still physically distancing from other concertgoers,” says Jeremy Giles, PMC Facility Manager.

“Tap your feet, bring your popcorn, and plan to have a rocking great weekend! We are so grateful to the Peterborough Memorial Centre and the City of Peterborough for organizing these events and directing proceeds to support the community. This is a wonderful prelude to our annual United Way Campaign which will launch on Tuesday, September 29th at 10:00am” says Jim Russell, CEO of United Way Peterborough and District.

Last week, nearly 60 community members came together at our Solutions Summit to share ideas, build connections, and help shape the future of Reconciliation, Equity, Accessibility, Diversity, and Inclusion (READI) work across Peterborough City & County.

The conversations were thoughtful, honest, and inspiring, and we know there are still more voices to hear.

We’re now inviting the broader community to help inform how up to $300,000 through our new Priority Issues Fund will be invested over the next 18 months.
Whether you attended the Summit or not, we want your insight.

📝 Complete the Priority Issues Fund Survey before Tuesday, May 19 at 10:00 a.m. and help shape this work moving forward.

What a day❤️💪🌱.

Our Garden Box Community Build Day brought together volunteers, partners, and community members to build something truly meaningful, together!

Thanks to the incredible teamwork and generosity of everyone involved, this initiative was a huge success.

From start to finish, it was a reminder of what’s possible when people come together with a shared purpose.
We’re so grateful to our partners @scotiabank, @cityptbo , and @chemonghhbc for helping make this day possible.

And we’re just getting started…

Join us next for Day of Caring on June 26 as we continue to show the power of a community coming together.
