Donations make a difference Continued from page 1 3 · Thursday, December 13, 2012 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.insideHALTON.com Stoate said all of these agencies are important and all of them need consistent funding so they can continue to help people. Brad Park, UWO CEO noted in a news release that countless vulnerable families will have limited access to vital services and programs should there be a shortfall. Oakville Mayor Rob Burton said the shortfall could be eliminated if every household in Oakville simply donated about $2. Stoate said last year the UWO succeeded in reaching its goal of $4 million, but that it wasn't enough to assist all those in this community who needed help. "As you think about whether you can contribute, how much you can contribute, whether you should contribute to this charity as opposed to another charity, think about how much you will miss the money compared to how much that money will make a difference to the people who receive it," said Stoate. "I guarantee it will make more difference to them than it will to you." Donations can be made online through www. uwoakville.org, over the phone at 905-845-5571 or by cheque -- cheques must be made payable to United Way of Oakville and mailed to 466 Speers Rd., Suite 200, Oakville, ON, L6K 3W9.
