We have succeeded as a group where many individuals have fail. d. But, we must remain United, especially this year. Our communiVy is growing and with th t giowth comes a greater need and r< pom-ability caring for those not as fofeunate as us. It's not only the one out of every 10 children born defective, or thousands s’cruck by disease or poverty, or the old and forgotten that need our care. Thore is no fam ly or individual in St. Joseph Coun\y who doesn't benefit in sme way from the United Way.
