Perspectives is on the Road Again
We’re on the road again! This time, we're headed to Erie, Pennsylvania to the United Way of Pennsylvania State Conference.
Thank You to the Trailblazers
When the Southeast Regional Conference ended last week, Gary and I headed up the scenic chairlift on Mount Harrison. We were headed toward what we had been promised was “the greatest view in the Smokies that you can get without hiking.”
2018 Great Rivers Conference
We invite you to join us at the upcoming 2018 Great Rivers Conference, a regional United Way conference being held from March 5th-8th in Indianapolis, Indiana.
Great Rivers – Great Times in Green Bay!
Gary and I headed back from Green Bay, Wisconsin last night after attending the 2017 Great Rivers Conference. It was a wonderful conference and we enjoyed meeting with United Ways from across the Midwest!
