In the home stretch of its annual campaign, United Way Perth-Huron has raised more than one and a half million dollars – 87 per cent of
its goal.
Campaign co-chair Martin Ritsma tells myFM some of that cash will continue to fund the U-Way’s “urgent needs program” launched last spring.
Through its funding of a variety of community agencies, the United Way estimates almost 30 per cent of the region’s population has used the agencies and programs it funds annually.
