What's Happening at
YOUR United Way Today!
It's A School Supply Drive
 What do crisp clean notebooks, freshly sharpened pencils, multi-colored folders, crayons with untouched tips, and a brand new box of Kleenex all have in common? They are all tools that prepare students each year for the first day of school. Unfortunately, not every child can be prepared for the first day of school, simply because they do not have the means of purchasing these items.
The Department of Human Services has again awarded United Way of Weld County a $50,000 grant to help over 17,000 students in Weld County be prepared for that first day of school. According to Free and Reduced Lunch statistics, there are an additional 1,000 children to help in 2009, indicating how tough times are for Weld County families.
We invite you to help a child to be triumphant in school.
The next time you stop at the store, pick up a notebook, some crayons, or any school supply item and drop it off at the United Way office or look for the collection sites at all Weld County King Soopers locations and Sam’s Club in Greeley thru mid July.
United Way of Weld County is also seeking volunteers to help pick up, sort, and get school supplies ready for delivery, call 2-1-1 to get involved!
