Kick Off: Week of Caring & Virtual Food Drive
This year, we kicked off our Community Campaign Aug. 17-23 with our "Week of Caring." Local residents were able to give back to their community through our Week of Caring virtual Bingo game and a Virtual Food Drive to benefit two of our partner agencies: Christian Services, Inc., and Edwards Street Fellowship Center. Several neighbors and friends participated in acts of caring during the week, from cleaning up the Longleaf Trace to making masks for a local clinic to making food drive donations. Because of the generosity of those who donated to our food drive online, we are able to provide 30 bags of groceries to families served by our food pantry partners. Thank you to everyone who participated in this kick-off cause. Check out our Week of Caring Facebook album for scenes from the week. And let's continue to be UNITED IN CARING!
United Way of Southeast Mississippi's mission is to cultivate partnerships in our community to improve lives through education, financial stability, and healthy living. We strive to make a positive impact in our service areas of Forrest, Lamar, Marion, and Perry counties by providing funds to partnering agencies addressing community issues in our four impact areas: education, financial stability, health, and support services.
