Happy Spring! The time for renewal and rebirth.


 

The WLN has many exciting engagement and giving opportunities this season. It's hard to believe it's once again time for the Steering Committee to review grant applications and make funding recommendations to the United Way of Delaware County Board. As we enter into another year of raising awareness and funds for Delaware County programs and services we want to THANK YOU for your continued support as we change and transform lives right where we live!


 

Michele Savoldi, Chair

Barbara Matta, Honorary Chair
