Why Lisa LIVES UNITED:  "I feel blessed for all the gifts I’ve been given.  I Live United in order to be involved and share those gifts with others.  We live in a great community and it’s important to come together to get things done that benefit everyone as a whole.  The United Way of Southwest Minnesota is a great organization in that by giving to them, the resources are distributed to various agencies through a grant application process.  Volunteer members of the community determine how those funds are used to produce positive results.  It truly is our United Way.
