United Way officials and Princeton University representatives gathered April 22 on campus to acknowledge the $142,890 raised for the United Way in this year's campaign.
The campaign raised $125,689 in contributions from faculty, staff and retirees — $94,672 from the main campus, $23,866 from the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory and $7,151 from retirees.
The University matched gifts with 15 cents on the dollar for every payroll deduction contribution and 10 cents on the dollar for all other gifts, for a total University contribution of $17,201.
All donations will be distributed to United Way programs in Mercer County or employees' home communities, or to other health and human services agencies that were designated by individual donors.
