The 2009-10 campaign goal is set at $6.2 million, which in this economy is not only ambitious, but essential. As Tim Garvin, President and CEO of our United Way is fond of saying, "if not now, when?"

With this campaign just beginning, the foundations and corporate partners as well as individual donors who have already pledged their support make us optimistic that we will reach this goal.

Last year, we invested more than $5.8 million in local agencies, community service programs, and services such as Mass 2-1-1. Click on the pie chart for an interactive overview and listing of the local programs and their awarded amounts.
