United Way gave out $95,000 to local social service agencies at its 2nd annual community partner celebration Thursday June 9.
Allocations increased $25,000 over last year in the South Okanagan Similkameen due to a 21 per cent increase in campaign fundraising.
In attendance were representatives from all twelve Community Partner agencies, other organizations that collaborate with United Way, youth grant recipients, leadership donors, Unity House members and United Way volunteers.
