Who benefits from United Way? We all do. As our area experiences the changes that come with increased numbers of newcomers, an aging population, economic ups and downs, changing social circumstances, and other unexpected situations, there is peace of mind in knowing that our community can - and will - take care of its own. |

| Treat-a-Grams! |
Brought to you by GASP!
This year GASP has offered to help out the department with their annual United Way Fundraiser and sell Halloween candy grams (or Boo-grams, if you will). Candy grams can be purchased by anyone, and sent to anyone with a mailbox (or via someone with a mailbox - if so, please indicate whose mailbox you would like the candy gram sent to).
Candy gram forms are available for purchase through Amanda (4022), Vedran (2254), Dan (3201), and Sana (4230), and will cost $2 each. There will be a drop box in the mail room for completed forms.
Additionally, forms will be available for purchase in the mail room. Pick up blank candy gram forms from the mail room, put your completed candy gram in one of the provided envelopes, include your $2/form, seal it up, and drop it in the candy gram drop box!
Candy grams will be on sale until October 26th. All the proceeds from the candy grams will be donated to the department's United Way Fundraiser.
Thank You GASP! for all your hard work organizing and delivering the treat-a-grams and raising $168 for United Way!!!
