Our great SPACE employees have answered the call to help their neighbors again this year.  As the 2009 United Way campaign draws to a close, I’m proud to report that employee giving is only $48 shy of last year’s record number.  That’s amazing to me considering Michigan’s economy and the belt-tightening everyone’s doing. 

Thanks in part to our SPACE team, United Way of Midland County can continue to meet the increasing needs of people in our area.  In addition, our SPACE team adds to their monetary pledges by donating time to Volunteer Center programs, United Way agencies, and the community at large.

Final community-wide totals will be available the first week of November.  As of right now, the campaign is at 72% of goal.  With most individual campaigns ending this coming week, hopes are high that the last 28% will be met.   Stay tuned for those final numbers……and……LIVE UNITED!
