Building Block events are our way of joining together with our neighbors throughout Butler County to give back in a way that will build a solid foundation for the future. Each Building Block event is tailored to one of the building blocks for a good life: Health, Financial Stability/Basic Needs, or Education. Between Monday, January 6 , 2025 and Thursday, January 30, 2025, we will be holding a Basic Needs Building Block Event and will be collecting Valentine's Day treats to be donated to Abilities First. Abilities First empowers children and their families living with Autism and different abilities to celebrate their strengths and reach their unique and highest potential by providing comprehensive care and support in an inclusive learning environment. Learn more about Abilities First by visiting their website here.
Join us in spreading love and connection this Valentine’s Day through our special care packages for Abilities First members, organized by Butler County United Way! This initiative aims to brighten the day of our community members by providing thoughtful grams filled with joy and warmth. Butler County United Way will deliver these grams to Abilities First, ensuring everyone there feels included and valued this Valentine’s Day. Let’s come together as a community to celebrate love, friendship, and support!
