On Wednesday\u2019s (Dec 19, 2012) Wayne Byers Show on CSi Cable 2, spokesperson Megan Aldinger said the figure is in line with last year\u2019s donations.<\/p>\n

Also on our show, Lynette Stoddart said, the kick-off event this year was excellent, with a hoop shoot, cake walk and other activities, noting a great turnout from the community, and so many wonderful sponsors who helped make the event possible.<\/p>\n

However, every year has posed a challenge, but officials are very hopeful the community will pull through and help the United Way to reach it\u2019s goal to give back to the community in endless ways.<\/p>\n

The\u00a0goal is a little higher this year, based on a greater need in the community, at $200,000.<\/p>\n

On Friday’s (Dec 21, 2012) Wayne Byers Show, United Way representatives Jessica Haak, and Connie Sova, talked about an upcoming fundraiser at Applebee’s Restaurant in Jamestown.<\/p>\n

The theme is “Be An All-Star,” as patrons may purchase a star, when they donate as much as they want, and the amount is added to their bill.<\/p>\n

The stars will be hanging around Applebee’s for the community to view.<\/p>\n
