United Way-Thomas Jefferson Area brings together community leaders, nonprofit organizations, volunteers and businesses to assess and focus on the most pressing needs and those at greatest risk in our community. We mobilize the resources -- human, technical and financial -- to attack the root causes of these needs. That is how we make life better...right here at home.

But that is exactly what the first annual Keswick-United Way Golf Classic, presented by State Farm Insurance and sponsored by Keswick Hall, Club & Estate was all about. It was a great day at an amazing venue in support of reaching out to those in need. Read more. View the slideshow.
