VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
 
  • United Way Volunteers, As you've seen already, I'm sure, there is a lot of excitement built around this year's United Way Campaign. As briefly announced before, we are excited to introduce the first United Way Urban Adventure Run on October 6, beginning at 10:00 AM. Kim Sledd, along with several of her co-chairs in our Healthcare Division, are putting this fundraiser together to promote United Way and attract a new crowd to help with our endeavor. This is a highly secretive set of challenges in downtown Paris that will, no doubt, be a lot of fun for the participants and volunteers alike. If you are interested in helping make this event a reality, we need volunteers, challenge stops, challenge stop sponsors, and more. We'll have our next planning meeting next Wednesday, August 22, at 5:00 PM at Time Flies, downtown. For more of an idea of what we're putting together, check out the Austin Oyster Race and what they've done at http://www.oysterracingseries.com/index.php?pr=Sample_Courses. If you can't make the meeting but are still interested in helping, please e-mail Kim at kmsledd@gmail.com . Tickets are $25 per person with 2-4 person teams. I think we've also set the challenge stop sponsorships at $250, so there's need for runners and sponsors!
  • VOLUNTEERS NEEDED: OCTOBER 19TH AND 20TH Join United Way's Day of Caring with Habitat for Humanity's Brush of Kindness on these days to paint a house.Please contact 903-784-6642 or unitedway.lamarcounty@gmail.com  to sign up.

United Way

The United Way has brought together people and resources to build a safety net to help meet the needs of our friends, neighbors, co-workers and families.
 
A constant reminder that when we as individuals think outside ourselves, we have the power to facilitate change. When we think of others’ lives as linked to our own, our compassion grows. When we reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all. We build the strength of our neighborhoods. We bolster the health of our communities. And we change the lives of those who walk by us every day.
