Earlier this month, the United Way of Carroll was thrilled to announce they were able to allocate over $34,000 in funding for this year to Carroll County charitable organizations and efforts. This total represented about $10,000 more than previous years, an impressive feat at any time, but particularly notable during a pandemic. Executive Director, Jen Munson, said at that time the extra proceeds came from the huge amount of individual and business support they have received. Their annual grill out was changed to a drive-thru event in 2020, but people and businesses came out in full force to show their support. They also held a 50/50 raffle last year that helped with raising their total donations received. Munson says they are holding another raffle now, but it will be a little different than last year.
