City of Allen Employees Begin Their Annual United Way Campaign
Each fall, City of Allen employees embark on a month-long campaign to raise funds and awareness for the United Way. This year the campaign started off with a "Day of Caring" where volunteers from the City helped support the Meals on Wheels program for Allen Community Outreach. Over 30 volunteers assisted on eight delivery routes around our area. The campaign goes into full swing next week and includes a Food Drive to benefit the Allen Ministerial Alliance Food Pantry.
