Virtual Reality.

Today's the day UWGC goes virtual. The 2009 campaign kicks off online for the first time ever in our community.

We're gathered in a war room, blogging and chatting away. Any minute now we'll be joined by a handful of local celebs -- a Red, a Bengal or two, and various media personalities.

To say we're excited is an understatement.

The help and hope United Way provides to those in our community is critical. If you want to LIVE UNITED, and explore the stories of folks who already are, visit www.wecanliveunited.org.
