Many employers are running United Way campaigns right now. Back in 2004, I compiled a list of eligible United Way agencies from the Mon-Yough area. That list is now out-of-date, so I've added a few agencies and deleted others.
By the way: Many of these agencies only receive United Way money if you specifically write their code number onto your United Way form. So if you want your pledge to go to a specific organization in the Mon-Yough area, make sure you say so, and if you can throw a few sheckles their way, I'm sure they'd appreciate it.
If you know of any other local groups that are participating United Way agencies, add them in the comments section below, please.
