DRESS A CHILD

United Way of Butte and Anaconda provides funding for low income children from Butte and Anaconda to receive new outfits in preparation for the upcoming school year.  In August of 2022, we had 106 children receive school clothing.  This event, held at Walmart would not have been such a success had it not been for the 70 volunteer shoppers giving of their time to shop with these children
