2010 United Way Campaign Chairs

  

  

As longtime supporters of the United Way, we

feel honored to be this year's Campaign Chairs.

We have lived, worked and raised our family in

the Kennebec Valley for over 20 years. There are

so many generous and thoughtful people in our

community whom we consider ourselves truly

lucky to have met.

 

Roy Hussey is one of these people.

 

Roy's story is one of commitment and public

service that began the day he left on the train to

serve his country in World War II. Even today,

his contributions are applied by the numerous

Kennebec Valley residents who work to improve

the lives of others.

 

Roy served his country, operated a very successful

local business, and has faithfully contributed to

the United Way for over fi fty years.

He has inspired us with his belief that we

all share the responsibility to support our

community when the need arises.

 

Roy has amazed us, as have so many of you,

with his enduring generosity. We are humbled

by wonderful people like Roy Hussey, who are

committed to helping those in need. From the

volunteers at the Bread of Life Shelter to those at

Literacy Volunteers, it is truly inspiring to know

that our Leadership contribution is helping so

many people.

 

We can all follow Roy's example by supporting

our United Way, which funds fi fty-one programs

in Kennebec Valley. Our Leadership Circle

donations are critical to reaching the goal of

helping every family and individual in need.

 

If you have given in the past, we are most

grateful. In recent years, nearly half our annual

goal has been met by contributions at the

Leadership Circle level. This year, we invite you

to join the Leadership Circle by donating six

hundred dollars or more annually.

 

If Roy's example inspires you the way it has

inspired both of us, we're confi dent the United

Way of Kennebec Valley can rely on your

support.

Ordinary People. Extraordinary Results!

A young man staying at the homeless shelter was referred to me by his case manager. We were able to assist with getting him a full time job that paid $8 an hour. The job was quite a distance from where he lived in Augusta. We researched ways to get to and from work. Carpooling was not an option as none of the company’s employees traveled from Augusta to the work location, cab fare was $30 one way, and the distance to walk to work was too far though he was willing to do so. Through the fund provided by United Way and Green St. Church we were able to purchase a bicycle from a local bike shop at the cost of $178.48.-
