We are so excited about this upcoming event! It’s 10 days (Feb 16-26) of dining out fun…all to support United Way of West Central Minnesota! We are so greatful to all of the local business that are participating in this event! Please check out the calendar and plan to grab a meal, coffee or treat to help us out!

FIRST UP…CUPCAKES! DEIDRA’S IN WILLMAR IS BEING VERY GENEROUS! SHE’S BAKING UP CUPCAKES AS WE SPEAK TO SELL TO YOU FOR $1 EACH ON THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 16TH. ALL PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO UNITED WAY! (Here’s an idea…call Deidra in advance and order up a dozen for the office…or bringĀ a couple to parent-teacher conferences…a little chocolate goes a long way!)

 

Art Empowerment Art Pics are Here!

Art is flowing into our office this week…what fun! I’m attaching photos of most of the great stuff we’ve received so far. I’ll add more as it comes in! Can’t wait for Friday! Call now to reserve your ticket!

Advance and Home to Home Team Up!

Our young leaders group, Advance, is teaming up with Home to Home, the home of United Way’s Gift In Kind program. Gift in Kind allows us to distribute housewares and basic essentials to those in need in our community. Advance…well, they are teaming up to first complete a small remodel project at Home to Home and then to help move the inventory and finally to manage it! Such a great partnership…we love to see these things happening here at UW!

Art and Jazz!

We are really excited about our upcoming fundraising event: Art Empowerment! The event takes place at the Oaks at Eagle Creek on Friday, November 4th at 7:00 pm. We anticipate a fabulous night of art and jazz! We will sell, via silent auction, over 30 peices of art created by local artists! This year we focusedĀ on repurposed art (i.e. chandelier made out of mason jars, giant flowers made from rail road ties, etc.). And…to top it all off, we’ve brought in a wonderfully talented band, Lion and the Bloom! This Twin Cities jazz band is sure pair just perfectly with our art! What a fun evening! Tickets are $20 if purchased by 10/28, or $25 after 10/28. To RSVP please email us at sara@liveunitedwcm.org or call us at 320.235.1050!
