You will find, as you look back on your life, that the moments that
stand out are the moments when you have done things for others.

Campaign Merger
In 2010, the Local Employee Committees of the Lubbock and West Central Texas State Employee Charitable Campaigns (SECC) began looking
for ways to make the campaign more efficient and cost-effective. It was
decided to merge the campaign areas, bringing them under one local
campaign manager. The Permian Basin campaign area, inactive since
2006, was also added to the merger to form the Greater West Texas
SECC. This new campaign is managed by the Lubbock Area United Way
and covers 47 counties.
