\nIf you are asking yourself, \u201cWhy should I give to United Way?\u201d KPUW offers these points:<\/p>\n\n
\n<\/strong>For less than $5 a week, your annual gift of $250 will provide:
\n<\/em>Fifty well balanced and nutritious meals to home bound seniors.
\nOne week of shelter for a mother and child escaping abuse.
\nFor less than $10 a week, your annual gift of $500 will provide:
\n<\/strong>A senior citizen five round trip rides to the hospital per week for essential medical treatments.
\nOne year of after school programs for twenty five underprivileged children who would otherwise be home alone.
\nPlease support United Way, and help KPBSD reach the $12,000 goal this year! That\u2019s double last year\u2019s contributions, but still less than KPBSD has contributed in the past.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
