Meet Meena 👋 A few weeks ago, she was at the Capitol speaking with legislators and sharing one simple message: make Healthy School Meals for All permanent.

Yesterday, the Senate Education Committee advanced a bill that did just that! 🎉

This progress is possible because advocates like Meena and supporters like YOU used their voices to make a difference.

Now let's finish the job. Thank our legislators and urge them to make free school meals permanent for Michigan students 👇 https://unitedwaysem.org/act/fight-childhood-hunger/

The Christian Financial Outreach & Impact Foundation visited United Way for Southeastern Michigan, where we proudly presented a $2,500 grant to support their annual Backpacks for Bright Futures back-to-school program.🎒

This impactful initiative helps ensure students across Macomb, Oakland, Wayne, and Washtenaw counties start the school year prepared—providing thousands of backpacks filled with grade-appropriate essentials like notebooks, folders, and writing tools.

We are honored to support the incredible work of United Way for Southeastern Michigan as they help families find relief in times of crisis and work toward stability.
