Letter to the Editor: Big Thanks to United Way of SJC

United Way of San Juan County graciously awarded a grant to Orcas Family Connections (OFC) in early 2011.

With this grant, we were able to hire an office manager to assist our family advocate with the numerous programs supported by OFC. Erin O’Dell, our family advocate, has been able to focus more of her time on client needs and program assistance, which is ultimately what OFC needs in order to provide essential community support.

We are thankful to the United Way of SJC for recognizing this vital community need, and for helping us grow our organization. The United Way of SJC supports more than 20 local island programs that would otherwise not be as successful. We all benefit from United Way’s ability to bridge resources with our communities most critical needs.

To learn more about the United Way of San Juan County, or to make a donation, visit their website at www.unitedway-sanjuancounty.org. OFC appreciates United Way’s continued support, as they appreciate yours.

Thanks again United Way, for all that you do for San Juan County.
