| Operation School Supplies Under Way |
United Way is focused on helping children and youth in our community reach their full potential. When parents don't have to worry about how to obtain school supplies, their children can focus on what's important—getting a good education.
In its 20th year, Operation School Supplies (OSS) provides students with the tools they need to succeed in school. |
