Out of concern for the extra strain on community support resources caused by the current Federal shutdown, the Executive Board voted to make the following $1,000 donations:  in memory of Bill Hall (volunteer) to the Family Services Leagues HIHI program providing shelter and other services to the home less;  Ecumenical Lay Council Food Pantry and the  Homeless Vets organization.  In addition a donation to support UTN President Stacey Weisberg’s participation in the Purple Project run raising funds for pancreatic cancer – she is running in memory of our late colleague, Linda Goodman.
