Together with our agency partners, we strive tolower the drop-out rate by half by the year 2018. Some ofthe projects we embrace are: City-wide Book Drive, TheDay of the Child, The Salvation Army Dress AChild/Backpack program, and Born Learning Trails.

Toilet paper driveThis annual event is sponsored by the United Way in an effort to collect toilet

paper that is then given to local nonprofit agencies who distribute it to needyfamiles. The Butte Rescue Mission and the Anaconda Project Care are two of theagencies that depend on this drive for their supplies of toilet paper. This event isheld in November, but we collect all year round. Toilet paper can be brought toDumpster Days and dropped off, or it can be brought to the United Way office. Ourlocal Wal-Mart is a huge part of the toilet paper distribution, in that they collectpackages all year around and give them to the United Way for distribution to theagency partners.

DumpsterDays

Dumpster Days has become a city-wide mission to keep recyclables out of our landfills.

To date, the effort has collected 315, 403pounds of recyclables that didn’t make it tothe landfill. That equals 157 baby elephants.

All of the recyclables are collected andtaken to our partner A & S Metals, who without their participation this projectwould not be possible.

Our next dumpster Days event is Oct. 15,2011 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Collection locations are WalMart, ButtePlaza Mall, and the Montana Standard.

We are always looking for volunteers whowould like to give of their time and talentsand join us for this worthwhile event, all youneed to do is contact the United Way office at 782-1255.

VOLUNTEERS, right and below, help people load recyclables

into dumpsters during Dumpster Days.

Caring this summer, and it was deemed a hugesuccess.

This community impact project providessweat equity to local agencies who have a need.This year our awesome Montana TechOredigger football team and Coach DougSchleeman participated in July at the LegionOasis.

These volunteers planted trees, and erected achain link fence for the Legion Oasis facility.

In August, we went to Anaconda, where volunteers provided service to DiscoveryHouse, Head Start, Family resource Center, andthe Kiwanis planted a Born Learning Trail atDwyer Elementary school.

Later in August, we gathered at MontanaTech for a BBQ and a few words from ChiefExecutive Paul Babb before the volunteers weredispatched to their work areas.

The agencies who benefited from all of thesevolunteers hours were the YMCA, Paul ClarkHome and the Kiwanis Sunshine Camp. A greattime was had by all, and many hours of sweatequity was provided to our community.

dren’s books from individuals, Butte Plaza Mall, SecondEdition Books, Books to Books, Butte 4 C’s, The Hearst FreeLibrary and the Family Resource Center in Anaconda.

The goal is to provide community children with books toencourage reading and to begin personal libraries of theirown. The agendy was able to distribute books each week ofthe Sunshine Camp, Legion Oasis and Silver Bow Homessummer feeding programs, and at the Benny Goodman Parkin Anaconda.
