But the agencies that we support help us further our mission by working to strengthen children, youth and families. they promote health, healing and crisis intervention. Or they provide basic needs and self suffiency...."

Sattler says they support 25 different agencies in the three counties. She says the agencies they support further the Northwoods United Way mission. Sattler says businesses can still set up a pledge campaign. More information is available at 715-202-3344 or go to Northwoods United Way.org
