Spreading Holiday Cheer to Those in Need

SSB Investment Services Gives Donation the United Way

Southbridge, MA, December 03, 2008 - During the holiday season Jason Main and his staff at SSB Investment Services like to spread Holiday cheer to their customers. However, in lieu of a traditional holiday gift basket a donation was made this year to the United Way in their customer's name. "During these economic times it is important to recognize the people that need help the most", said Jason, during a recent interview. This donation meant that the organization received a check for two thousand dollars to support their program. United Way is a national network of more than 1,300 locally governed organizations that work to create lasting positive changes in communities and people's lives. Building on more than a century of service as the nation's preeminent community-based fundraiser, United Way engages the community to identify the underlying causes of the most significant local issues, develops strategies and pulls together financial and human resources to address them, and measures the results. United Way of America is the national organization dedicated to leading the United Way movement. While local United Ways tackle issues based on local needs, common focus areas include helping children and youth succeed, improving access to health care, promoting self-sufficiency, and strengthening families.
