Residents Feed the Hungry Through Donations to the United Way Fund

Every year at tax time, taxpayers have the opportunity to help their less fortunate neighbors when they file their Michigan State tax returns.  Lapeer County residents made an impact right here in their own community by donating to the United Way Fund.  The fund was established in 2009 to help provide emergency food, clothing and shelter to the Michigan residents hardest hit by the economic downturn.  Donations are distributed based on the taxpayer's zip code, so local residents are guaranteed that the money comes home to help their friends and neighbors.  This year's donations totaled nearly $2,000 for Lapeer County.

Thanks to all of you who contributed at tax time this year! If you'd like to direct a portion of your 2011 tax return to help needy families, ask your tax preparer to file form 4642 and "check off" the United Way Fund.
