We surpassed our goal this year! With your help and the help of
many many volunteers and a dedicated staff we reached and passed
our goal. Hundreds of those in this community that you may never
meet are grateful for your generosity. Of course the fact that
we have reached our goal doesn't stop us. The more we go over
our goal, the more lives we can touch. Don't stop now, keep
those pledges coming!
December is a busy month and a month to reflect on the past
year. It has been a great year in so many ways. The best for me
of course was the birth of our first grandchild. Thank you for
sharing in our joy. If you see me, just ask, I have pictures
ready!
Please be on the look-out for a new website we have coming for
2010. It will be new and improved. We hope you will use it to
find out what is going on in the world of United Way Agencies.
May you and yours have a blessed Christmas Season and a Happy
New Year!

Underneath everything we are,
underneath everything we do,
we are all people.
Connected, interdependent, united.
And when we reach out a hand to one,
we influence the condition of all.
That’s what it means to
