All Bluffton Icon News

Icon Reader:

I am writing on behalf of the Board of Directors of the United Way of Bluffton, Beaverdam, and Richland Township.  As we start our Door-to-Door Campaign, TONIGHT, Tuesday, September 18, 2012, we are excited about the opportunity that all of us possess to assist the many organizations that support the residents of Bluffton, Beaverdam, and Richland Township.

These local groups benefit practically EVERY PERSON, and especially EVERY CHILD, in our local United Way district.
