Raising over $60,000 provides resources for our local United Way to continue helping the critical health, financial stability and educational needs of our Eastern Shore community. The Holiday Ball was a testament to the overwhelming support and generosity shown by our local community. We look forward to an even more successful 2014 Holiday Ball”.
