Do United Way agencies serve only poor people?
Agencies receiving United Way funding serve not only low-income families, but also offer programs that all citizens use. In fact, one out of three children and their families in our community is served by a United Way agency. (If your child has been a Boy Scout or Girl Scout, or has taken part in a YMCA or YWCA program, then he or she has taken part in United Way program.) Even if your family never has to call on Hospice or Cancer Services, isn’t it a good feeling to know they’ll be there if you need them?
