Thrift shoppers woke bright and early to take advantage of great bargains all while helping make our community thrive at the Blue & Gold Mine Sale at Milan Puskar Stadium on May 16, 2026.
On May 13th, United Way of Monongalia and Preston Counties continued the Day of Caring tradition for the 34th year. The organization kicked off the volunteering event in the parking lot of Burke & Herbert Bank. Although the weather was questionable, it was still a great morning with about 100 volunteers participating in the kickoff. Everyone enjoyed coffee, pastries, picked up their Day of Caring tee shirts, tried their luck in winning gift cards to local businesses, and gathered for a group photo.
The United Way of Monongalia and Preston Counties is proud to announce that the community united to surpass its 2026 campaign goal of $1.2 million under the leadership of campaign chair Dave Thomas of Clear Mountain Bank. This ensures continued support for vital nonprofit programs across the two-county region.
