InfoBits

United Way's Work in Our Community

InfoBit: News from United Way of Berks County is a monthly communication piece we've developed to keep our most involved volunteers up-to-date on the work United Way is doing in our community.  Each month, we will feature a different subject - from outcomes to success stories to United Way's response to key community issues.  We hope you will find this information valuable and encourage you to share this information with others that share the goal of building a stronger community for all.

Each InfoBit is available in two formats - a printable version and an electronic version that can be forwarded via email (you'll need to copy the web address and paste into an email).  If you would like to subscribe to InfoBits or if you would like to request a customized format, click here.
