The United Way’s Annual Campaign kicked off on Friday.
Executive Director of United Way Perth-Huron, Ryan Erb says the campaign helps support their community partners.
But, this year, and moving forward, he says it will also help support their Urgent Needs Fund.
Erb explains that the Urgent Needs Fund helps local residents in a time of crisis and helped over 500 people through the summer.
Continuing, he admits that fundraising will be more difficult this year, but Erb believes the community will be able to step up.
