Every year United Way of Allen County holds a Community Campaign with the goal of raising awareness and funds. The 2008-2009 workplace campaign brought in a total of $4.7 million and the goal of $4.8 million has been set for the 2009-2010 campaign. 'Live United' is the theme of this year's campaign.
Donations to United Way of Allen County go to support 64 local social service programs, programs that provide everything from health care, counseling, shelter, and education. The donated funds are allocated by volunteers who have examined each program and its results. Elligible programs are required to fall into one of three United Way focuses: Success in School, Family Stability, or Meeting Basic Needs.
To contribute to the 'Live United' Community Campaign or for more information, visit www.unitedwayallencounty.org or call 260-422-4776 and request to speak with the staff accountant.
