So What?

Our 2009-2010 Campaign has come to and an end and many people ask the question, So What? Our answer to this question is expressed with enthusiasm and excitement. Simply check out our 2009-2010 Community Impact Report to see the progress that has been made in Charlevoix and Emmet Counties. 

This report shares a glimpse of the work that we have completed over the last year. From investing $166,750 in 23 programs of 21 local health and human service agencies, to our 5 impact areas, partner agencies and current projects and strategic initiatives, we encourage you to check out the report and see the impact we have had in Charlevoix and Emmet Counties.

 

Without the dollars contributed, we could not assist Manna in providing food to local pantries, Exceptional Riders in increasing the self-esteem of more than 18 kids with physical and developmental disabilities or Northern Homes in decreasing and preventing the effects of losing a home on a family.

After looking over the report, we are sure you'll see the impact your investment in United Way has. After all, United Way does much more than a community Campaign and we could not do it without YOU!

 

Day of Action

 

Day of Action is a national United Way campaign that mobilizes communities to advance the common good. Held on June 21- the longest day of the year- with more daylight hours than any other, Day of Action is the perfect day and the perfect way to show what it means to LIVE UNITED, to make an impact on education, income, and health. These are the building blocks for a good life -- a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health.

 

We invite you to be a part of the change. Join United Way or declare your own day of action. Recruit some friends. Get your employer to sponsor an activity. Grab anyone who wants to: Create change. Make the community a little stonger. Make the day a little brighter. And create new energy that will inspire others to act not just on this day but throughout the year.
