105 golfers of all ages and abilities came out to SportsOhio on May 1 and enjoyed an evening of all-you-can-play Mini-Golf at United Way of Union County’s 2nd annual Putt FORE Kids! Mini-Golf Challenge.

Golfers and sponsors helped United Way raise more than $4,500 at the event. Proceeds will be used to replenish United Way’s Youth Arts & Recreation Grant Fund, which pays participation fees for area children to be involved in positive, structured youth activities when their families are unable to afford them.

Mini-Golf, Major Impact!
Help us bridge the gap from crime time to prime time!

 

Richwood youth gather for a summer dance sponsored by United Way's Youth Arts & Recreation Grant Fund.

Did you know that the hours between 3:00 and 6:00 p.m. are the times when adolescents are most likely to get into trouble? It's between the end of the school day and before Mom or Dad get home from work when many kids are left unsupervised.

Keeping children involved in positive, structured activities is a key in guiding them down the right path. Since its inception in 2001, United Way's Youth Arts & Recreation Grant Fund has awarded more than $66,000 to qualifying organizations.
