LIVE UNITED blog
The United Way of Southeast Missouri strengthens families with a focus on education, income and health. LIVE UNITED is our call to action engaging the community to GIVE, ADVOCATE and VOLUNTEER to create a good life for all in our community. Our initiatives include Success by 6, Read to Succeed, and LIFE (Leading and Inspiring Families to Excel). To help the community access existing services, we offer First Call for Help, a telephone help-line for local services; 573-334-HELP.

Donor Spotlight: Nicholas Burger
Posted Monday, April 27, 2015, at 8:22 AM
Nick Burger, Commerce Bank
1. How long have you lived in this community?
I am a native of Southeast Missouri and will likely never leave the area.
2. What is your occupation?
I am a Commercial Loans Relationship Manager with Commerce Bank in Cape Girardeau.
3. What are you passionate about?
I am passionate about each day I have on this earth and strive to make a positive impact on every person in my life.
4. What are your hobbies?
I enjoy nearly anything that involves being outdoors. I attempt to play golf as often as my schedule allows and I really enjoy lawn care/landscaping.
5. What do you love most about this community?
I love the diversity in our community. Southeast Missouri is full of diversity from its people to its businesses, activities, and geography.
6. How long have you been a United Way donor?
I have donated to United Way for 5 years.
7. Why do you choose to support your community through United Way?
There are many people in our community who desire a greater life or who are capable of doing great things and all they need is the support to get them started. My parents got me off to a great start and prepared for the real world. Unfortunately, many people do not have the same blessing. United Way is a great organization that can give a child, adult or family the support they need to become successful or simply help out in a time of need. I choose to donate to United Way because I like knowing that my donation goes to work right here in Southeast Missouri.
