60 Years of Impactful Partnership and Support for the United Way
The United Way helps those in need and the agencies that provide vital services and resources.
We extend our sincere thanks to all Trent employees, retirees, and unions for their outstanding support of the 2025 United Way Workplace Campaign. Together, we exceeded our $100,000 goal, raising $124,847 to help fund meaningful programs and services across the region. This achievement holds special significance as we celebrate 60 years of partnership with United Way Peterborough & District, a longstanding tradition of generosity that reflects our shared commitment to strengthening our local communities. Thank you for helping us make a lasting difference.

Why Give to the United Way?
Did you know that Trent's donation accounts for 10% of Peterborough's community campaign? As the largest workplace donation, our contributions are vital for the operation of United Way and its partner agencies, which rely on our support to provide essential services and resources to our community.
Your investment goes far, but not far away! Your gift to Trent's United Way campaign directly fuels positive change in our local communities. With your help, we can bridge the gap and improve access to essential services for our neighbours, ensuring that individuals and families in need have the tools, resources, and support to build a better future.
Social change is made in local communities through the United Way’s support for 20 partner agencies and 275 programs in both Peterborough and Durham that address issues facing our community including homelessness, food insecurity, domestic violence, and mental health challenges. You can find a detailed breakdown of how the United Way Peterborough & District uses all of our contributions in their Community Impact Report for 2024-2025.
