Of course, we can't do it alone;  We need your help.  Please consider supporting your community by supporting the Barrington Area United Way.

 

- RoundUp Event raises over $110,000.00

The Barrington Area United Way is proud to announce that the year-long 2009 RoundUp Public Art Exhibition raised over $110,000!  The funds raised through the RoundUp move the United Way closer to reaching its 2009-2010 goal of raising $400,000 to fund health and human services programs within the greater Barrington area.

 

The BAUW is also announcing they will sponsor a second public art exhibition in 2011, with a final auction and party planned for October 2011.  More details on the event and opportunities for artists, donors and volunteers to participate will be released in the near future.
