Council Members Help Kick Off United Way's Live United Campaign

Council members Mattie Thacker, Sydney Venable, Maha Madani, Alia Madani, Emma Purifoy and her mom Emma, helped kick off the 2010 United Way
Live United Campaign with a flash mob performance in the River Market on Saturday, August 21.

About 50 dancers of all ages entertained surprised River Market shoppers and helped send the message that "Underneath everything we are, everything we do, we are all people...connected, interdependent, united. And when we reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all....That's what it means to LIVE UNITED. It takes everyone in the community working together to create a brighter future." The campaign begins September 1st and money raised will fund area non-profits.
