United Way Makes
Your Caring Count
You get a good feeling
when you help somebody in need. Think about how good you feel when you
buy a toy for a needy child or help provide food for a family during the
holiday season.
But need knows no
season. People need a helping hand all year long. Imagine a neighbor who
is freezing because they have no heat. Do you want to help? Imagine a
relative who needs life saving medicine. Do you want to help? You want
to help both but you don't have enough money yourself. How do you choose
who you help?
Well, what do you
do when a co-worker faces a crisis and needs some financial help. You
"pass the hat" and everyone gives something.
United Way is the
'HAT' in our community.
Giving to the United
Way magnifies your ability to touch the lives of many more people than
you thought you could.
You have the opportunity
to help the people you are most concerned about. Perhaps it is low-income
families, those with disabilities, children, the frail elderly who live
alone, or people transitioning from welfare to work.
With the United Way,
you don't have to choose. You can make a world of difference in all their
lives-all at the same time. That's because your one gift to the United
Way combines with thousands of others to support effective and efficient
programs provided by a variety of agencies.
