United Way ups its 2024 fundraising goal

THE UNITED WAY of Addison County kicked off its 2024 fund drive last month with a series of “Days of Caring” that saw many folks volunteer their time performing tasks, ranging from landscaping to painting, at nonprofits throughout the county. The Middlebury College squash teams helped glean — you guessed it, squash (as well as potatoes) — for a local food shelf.

UWAC late last month launched a 2024 campaign to raise $750,000 for charitable causes in our area. That’s $50,000 more than last year’s fund drive, which ended up netting an impressive $859,941. So officials are pleased to be able to boost this year’s goal, which had plateaued at $700,000 in recent years.
