Our fund drive is locally organized and coordinated, and the funds collected are put to good use right here. Thanks to local volunteers and donated services, there’s very little overhead to absorb any of your much-needed contribution. Our agencies strive to respond to the diverse needs of our community, with basic food needs, terminally ill patients in the final phases of their lives, patients with spinal cord injuries fighting to walk again, and many more of your friends and neighbors facing health and economic challenges. Our appeal is held only once each year, and this is the single time the entire community can come together to assist the 18 organizations listed below. Our traditions and spirit of giving in Mercer County run deep. As “people who take care of each other,” our goal of $95,000 was not set without serious consideration. The need for every dollar is critical. With your generous help, our community and all those who share it will grow stronger every day.
