Jennifer Rucker of Shelby County tells her story of how United Way helped fund an early intervention program to help those like her daughter. At the time, when Shelby county was growing rapidly, there was no early intervention program for those with Down Syndrome or other disabilities.
The funding from United Way helped start the program, enabling participants to contribute to their community.
This is just one of many stories of how United Way is improving the lives of those in Central Alabama.
