Kathy Connor: George Eastman and the United Way

During World War I, George Eastman became involved with what was then known as the War Chest, a fund that helped soldiers and their families during and after the war. The War Chest became the Rochester Patriotic and Community Fund, and later, it turned into what we now know as the United Way of Greater Rochester. Legacy Curator Kathy Connor discusses Eastman’s involvement with the United Way beginning in 1918.
