United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley's Annual Campaign Explained

Our conversation for United Way Day featured United Way Northern Shenandoah Valley's CEO, Kaycee Childress and Dr. Yolanda Barbier Gibson, VP for Student Affairs at Shenandoah University and this year's Campaign Chair, to discuss the annual campaign. The theme for this year's campaign is "Be the Change. Empowering with Passion to make the Impossible Happen." The pair explained how the campaign works, its importance, and where the money goes. We discussed workplace campaigns, and how individuals can make donations. Kaycee told us how some local businesses create events for their staff to participate in and raise funds. Yolanda gave us quite an eye-opening rundown of how far a small donation can go to make a big impact in our community.  Learn more on their website: https://www.unitedwaynsv.org/give
