Family Bridge Coalition Update: NEW TOOL from Greater Longview United Way

LET'S GET CONNECTED



Get Connected is an exciting website bringing community volunteer opportunities, activities, and events to one location. It engages individuals looking to become more involved and make a difference in their community, with a wide variety of organizations and the opportunities they have available. And, this site allows local agencies and organizations to list their needs and happenings in one convenient place.

The site is free, user friendly, and will provide instant communication with an entire community of volunteers.

Get Connected is a collaborative effort of Lift Johnstown and the United Way of the Laurel Highlands, with financial sponsorship from the Community Foundation for the Alleghenies and the United Way.

Browse the site to learn more about local agencies, events, and to sign up for volunteer needs.  It is a fantastic, easy-to-use resource for the Family Bridge Coalition.
