In south-central Indiana, nearly half of all families struggle to make ends meet despite their hard work. Living paycheck to paycheck while hovering at or below the poverty line is a harsh reality for many families.
The United Way is rallying the community to help people make ends meet today and build a greater financial stability for the future, whether through financial empowerment opportunities, access to food and shelter, or rent and utility assistance.
