The United Way of Greater Chattanooga now has satisfied more than two-thirds of its $12 million stretch goal for its 2012 community campaign.
As of Wednesday, the campaign, which runs until the end of the year, had raised $8.1 million, or 67.5 percent.
“We are so excited to have reached this critical milestone,” campaign chairwoman Alison Lebovitz said in a news release, “but we still have a lot of ground to cover to provide this community with the vital services it needs.”
When the campaign’s target goal of $11.6 million is considered, the local organization has raised 69.8 percent of its objective.
No units have completed their campaigns, but the Marion County unit has raised 72 percent of its goal and the North Georgia unit 52 percent of its target.
