EAST ALTON This year’s United Way Community Christmas program has raised more than $40,000 to help an estimated 600 Riverbend area people and families in need this holiday season.
The Community Christmas program is sponsored by United Way of Greater St. Louis and The Telegraph with support from Freer Auto Body.
“Even with the changes to the program this year because of COVID-19, the community united together to make an incredible impact for local people in need,” said Maura Wuellner, director of the Southwest Illinois Division of United Way.
