When people need help from abuse, your support of United Way helps.

A young, expecting mother and her 3-year-old son escaped a frightening and violent home and family life

 

With only the clothes on their backs, they came to a United Way sponsored agency that serves abused women and their children. They had nowhere to go and no one to ask for help.

 

Thanks to the United Way funded program, this mother was able to receive help, a permanent residence to call home and the support to raise and protect her family.

 

Your support of United Way gave her the tools for a brighter and secure future.  She is now a college student majoring in Engineering. Through the generosity and kindness of your support, this family has a safe place to call home and a brighter future ahead.
