Dear Friends and Neighbors,
As we go through the busy routine of our daily lives, we are bombarded by the media with news of the less fortunate throughout the world. This news can get so overwhelming that we feel powerless to make any difference in the lives of others in need.
However, if you have made a contribution to the United Way of Southington, you have indeed made a real difference.
Perhaps not in some remote part of the world, but certainly in the lives of your neighbors right here in Southington. Thanks to you, the United Way has been able to focus on the real needs of our neighbors and fellow citizens.
During the past year, the United Way has been able to provide funding with your donations:
- To the Salvation Army to assist the elderly and those living on limited incomes, making available fuel to heat their living quarters during this past winter.
- To RSVP to provide additional transportation for the elderly to get to their medical appointments.
- To the Center for Healthy Aging to make available evaluation services for the elderly to schedule them for help in their daily lives.
These needs as well as many more are being addressed thanks to your generous donations. Please know
that you do make a big difference in your community.
The United Way of Southington responds to our communities needs, and your involvement in large and small ways makes the difference in lives that will last.
Sincerely,
Leonard Marchaselle
President, United Way of
Southington
