United Way Volunteer of the Month
It's been said that a community is only as strong as those who support it and, lucky for us, we have some great volunteers supporting ours! When someone volunteers their time at United Way of Escambia County, they aren't just helping staff - they're freeing up more resources for local charities. We have the best volunteers and we'd like to introduce them to you! Each month we highligt a volunteer from a different area of service - Board of Directors, Campaign or Loaned Executives, and in-house. These people are true examples of what it means to LIVE UNITED!
