Community Connections
United Way | Metro Detroit residents have a voice and the United Way wants to hear it. What matters most to you? From March 24 through April 13, residents of Macomb, Oakland and Wayne counties are being encouraged to voice what they feel are the top social issues that they would like to see progress on in our region, as well as what are the barriers we need to overcome to achieve success.
