“A year passed: winter changed into spring, spring changed into summer, summer changed back into winter, and winter gave spring and summer a miss and went straight on into autumn.”
Post what movie this quote is from by September 9 for a chance to win a “Live United” T-shirt. No IMDB allowed. Congrats to Rachel Zuellig who recognized Billy Madison last month and won!

On Wednesday, August 11, GenNext held its third annual volunteer recognition event. This exclusive, invite-only party recognized those who have participated in a GenNext service project over the past year.
Check out some photos of these awesome volunteers celebrating at Brennan’s.
This year, GenNext is on pace to complete over 2,500 volunteer hours and have over 500 young professionals volunteers. Both of these would be records for organization!
In attendance at the recognition event were sponsors Rodney Kinzinger from Deloitte and John Purcell from Monsanto. Both gave brief remarks about the importance of volunteering and the amazing United Way our community has. United Way president and CEO Gary Dollar was also on hand to thank volunteers for their commitment to the community. Click to learn more

Saturday, September 25 will mark GenNext’s 2nd annual washers tournament and kickoff. Join us at Carondelet Park picnic site #1 from noon - 5 p.m.
Admission is $25/person and includes entry into the washers tournament, food and drinks. You can register individually, as a team or without entry to the tournament (but you better bring your cheering A-game). And of course, our winners will get some awesome prizes.
Thanks to Northwestern Mutual, who is again sponsoring the event, all of the money raised will go directly to helping people through United Way.
The 2010 United Way campaign kicks off Tuesday, September 7. For more information on the United Way campaign or to help start a campaign in your workplace, please e-mail gennext@stl.unitedway.org.
Registration will open soon so get your washer box out, start practicing your throws and save the date for September 25! In the meantime, check out photos from last year.
Are you coming? Do you have stories from last year? Questions? Let us know below.
