The United Way of the Adirondack Region has completed is annual fundraising campaign.
The organization, which provides health and human service programs in Clinton, Essex and Franklin counties, raised $670-thousand dollars during its annual campaign. President and CEO John Bernardi says the total is up a bit over last year.
“We’re going to be able to help fund a network of programs and services across the region that are going to be able to help 80,000 people collectively. That’s half the population of the three-county region.”
The United Way of the Adirondack Region also raised $100-thousand dollars for the State Employees Federated Appeal.
