General Electric Donates Space Heaters to People in Need
By Kate McNatt
Metro United Way wants to thank all the kind folks at General Electric, who just donated 4,600 portable space heaters to people in need during these cold winter months. Metro United Way will be the leader in distributing the space heaters, and the Salvation Army, a Metro United Way agency, is going to serve as the distribution site.
There are two opportunities to get involved (see below). Volunteers will be handling boxes of heaters and should be able to lift up to 36 lbs. Boxes may be dusty or dirty so please dress accordingly. If you can help, please call Patty Belden at 502-292-6152 or email patty.belden@metrounitedway.org. As always, thanks for your support!
