It is the holiday season once again and we have plowed through another year. This has been the most challenging 20 months that I can ever remember. We have all had to go through a holiday season with limited contact with our family members and now feel a bit of relief in being able to see them.
And even though 2021 has held many challenges for the United Way and its many partner organizations, our communities have pulled together and continued to assist those in need.
I would encourage all those who are able, to continue to do what you can to assist your fellow community members. Please look at all the United Way does in the local area, “like & follow” United Way on Facebook to keep abreast of the contributions made to the various organizations as well as to see what organizations need assistance in your area. Maybe choose an organization or cause that you are passionate about and give them additional assistance.
Above all, I wish everyone a safe and joyous holiday season.
