Our Community Agencies NEED your help!!
The United Way of Franklin County serves 21 local non-profit agencies. All agencies are very shortly staffed, and can always use a helping hand. There is no talent that can't be utilized, no amount of time too small. Even if you can only give a few hours a month, give them! You wouldn't believe the amount of difference one person can make just by volunteering to read to some kids at The SIMON House, or by helping serve lunch at the ACESS Soup Kitchen. We have volunteer opportunities that can be 2 hours a month, all the way up to 2 week inter-state deployments with Red Cross for disaster relief!! You can donate as much or as little time as you choose, all we ask is that you help us help out our agencies! Volunteering is fun, a GREAT way to get invloved and meet community leaders, and might just give you some insight on what the real state of the nation is. Contact Katie Mueller here at the United Way office and help give back to this wonderful community that we call home!
