We invite you to be a part of our 2011 Kickoff Celebration, located at Security National Bank, and our 2011 Day of Caring, a community-wide effort to match 500 volunteers with volunteer opportunities across the Metro area.
The kickoff event is rain-or-shine, with a nice big tent and adjacent indoor space. Come hear the music, meet a neighbor of ours who is thankful for a program you've helped support. And, then there's the pancakes!

The 2-1-1 information and referral phone line remains available to the citizens of Council Bluffs, Pottawattamie County, seven other southwest Iowa counties and all Nebraskans.
However, a temporary disruption in three-digit cell phone dialing to 2-1-1 from Council Bluffs means residents there may need to call the center’s ten-digit number to get the information they seek on flood-related issues; that number is 402-444-6666. Experts are currently looking into the cell service disruption. |
United Way of the Midlands' Board of Directors approved $10,355,472 in funding that will support health and human service agencies within the metro area. See how your dollars will help local programs, and our neighbors, over the next year!
