CHISHOLM - United Way of Northeastern Minnesota (UWNEMN) continues to make a profound impact on the region, touching thousands of lives each year.
In 2024 alone, an estimated 100,000 people were positively affected by UWNEMN’s programs and partners, with official figures to be finalized next month, said Erin Shay, Executive Director of UWNEMN.
Being able to make a difference in the lives of others is the reason they come to work everyday and continue to work when they are outside of the office, said Shay.
