I don't know if you've been told...

...Live United is the goal. Put that to the tune of "Sound Off" and you have our attempt at a snappy Live United chant, created on the fly during the Findlay Market Parade. We walked on a gorgeous day behind a gorgeous little vintage restored red 1948 GM pickup filled with the owner's grandkids in Live United t-shirts. It was kitted out with a nicely branded Give/Advocate/Volunteer 2-sided banner on a wooden stand in the back. We followed the Northwest High marching band, so we had the beat going! As this was our first year, there were just five of us. We represented 211, PIRC, EITC, Marketing, and Community Impact/Inclusion. We were happy to hear shouts of support for United Way from the crowds along the way. We all concluded we should try to repeat our efforts next year but bring a bigger group, and create and practice our chant ahead. More voices for LIVE UNITED.
