HANNIBAL — The United Way of the Mark Twain Area looked back on a year filled with hope, setting up an emergency COVID-19 Response Fund to meet local needs and receiving donations for the 2020-2021 Be a Hero Campaign during a year unlike any other. Denise Damron, executive director of the United Way of the Mark Twain Area, kicked off the virtual look back at noon Wednesday on YouTube. The video showed how the United Way and partner agencies made a difference throughout the year — made possible through the generosity of individuals, businesses and foundations. Forrest Gossett, 2020-2021 campaign chairman, said donations to fund partner agencies’ efforts are critical to combat homelessness, child and spousal abuse, hunger and other issues which have become more prevalent during the pandemic.
