County recaps United Way golf fundraiser and staff proposes voluntary school-supply drive
Summary
Commissioners reported the United Way golf tournament raised a net of about $14,000 with 21 teams; staff proposed a voluntary school-supply drive for employees to assist dependents and will coordinate distribution confidentially.
A commissioner reported that the United Way golf tournament drew 21 teams and produced a net around $14,000, up from about $10,000 last year; the event included an iPad donation from CDW used in a raffle. "We had a great turnout... our net is gonna be around 14,000 compared to last year's about 10,000," the commissioner said.
Separately, a staff member proposed a voluntary school-supply drive for county employees to help their dependents. The staff member said responses from directors were mostly supportive (approximately 14 yes, five no, one undecided) and described a confidential distribution method to protect privacy. Commissioners voiced support and asked staff to send another announcement to employees.
