CALGARY, Sept. 20, 2013 /CNW/ - CNOOC Limited's Nexen will kick-off its 2013 United Way Calgary and Area campaign on Tuesday, September 24. This year's four-week campaign will officially start with Nexen employees building a gigantic, billboard-sized puzzle.

Nexen's United Way campaign theme "Piece by Piece" promotes the idea that each person plays an important role in building a stronger, healthier community for individuals and families in Calgary.

The last two Nexen campaigns were incredibly successful, increasing engagement and awareness about the United Way. In 2011, the campaign reached new heights by breaking the Guinness World Record for the Largest Gathering of People Dressed as Superman. In 2012, Nexen raised a record-breaking $1.5 million for the United Way kick-off event.
