Make a Difference - Live United

October 22nd, 2008

2008 has been a difficult year filled with financial uncertainty.  The need for social services and the generosity of the community is greater than ever before.  It is in times like these that a gift to Northwest Suburban United Way makes such an impact.  The 29 communities, 70+ programs and nearly 900,000 people benefit from the strength of community leaders like you.

 As the largest non-governmental funder of social programs in the Chicagoland area, donations to United Way go the distance.  For 75 years, United Way has been a champion of the community by funding the agencies that make a difference by delivering sustainability and hope through targeting the building blocks of success: income, education and health.  United Way helps the communities you live and work in.  United Way provides support for all ages and stages of life from Day Care to Job Readiness to Senior Care. 

We invite you to be an everyday hero and give, advocate and volunteer to United Way.  Give what you are able, Volunteer your time and talents and advocate the Live United message to your family, friends and neighbors.  Thank you for your continued support.
