 Welcome to our annual 2021 United Way campaign kickoff. I am Teresa Wilson, City Manager. I encourage all city employees to join me in giving to those in need through the United Way workplace campaign. Campaigns like ours help promote stability within our city by serving those in our homeless community. Enhancing education with providing tutoring in summer camps for elementary students to increase their reading skills and providing health care to our most vulnerable with free dental and eye care clinics. Last year generous donors like you made a real impact in the lives of our communities. Nearly 1,900 students participated in funded school programs and 88% of them were able to improve their grades and reading skills. Over 1,000 people avoided homelessness and found housing through United Way and over 270,000 meals were provided to senior citizens in the Midlands. Just know no amount is too small to give. When you give to United Way, every dollar allocated is being moved around in the community to help those who need it the most. The United Way solves complex issues but then coordinates the best way to solve those issues. Many thanks to our campaign team who leave the effort annually without any complaints. I'm so proud to lead city staff who care deeply about the work being done in our community. It's what makes the City of Columbia great leaders and partners in giving back to a worthy cause. Let's continue to support the United Way. What we do for our city will determine how we live united tomorrow. Thanks everyone for all the support.
