Happy November!
This time of year has us thinking about gratitude and how thankful we are for ALL you do in support of Valley of the Sun United Way and our community. From reaching our Breakfast in the Classroom goals, to responding quickly to the needs of families impacted by COVID-19, and launching our new MC2026 Five-Year Plan for Mighty Change in Maricopa County…NONE of it was possible without you.
That’s why we’re thrilled to share this link to the November/December issue of Frontdoors Magazine and its insider’s look into a few of our leaders and partners, including:
• Our President and CEO Carla Vargas Jasa shares her inspirations (hint, she has some pretty incredible parents) and the path that drives her to create Mighty Change.
• John Graham, Chairman and CEO of Sunbelt Holdings and Chair of our Board of Directors, talks about why he gives back to our community.
• Dr. Christine Wilkinson, Arizona State University Senior Vice President/Secretary of the University and a member of our Board, shares a day in her extraordinary life.
• Robin Reed, President and CEO of the Black Chamber of Arizona and a member of our Board, recommends a book we’ve added to our reading list, and think you should, too.
• Our partners at the Greater Phoenix Economic Council pave the way for an inclusive economy and Hushabye Nursery shares how its partnership with United Way helps get very special babies off to a healthy start in life.
We are incredibly proud of our many partners and hope you’ll feel proud when you get to know them through this Frontdoors edition.
Thank YOU for everything you make possible!
