Help local United Way fete 90th year

We here at the Boulder County Business Report are proud to be celebrating the newspaper’s 30th anniversary. While 30 years is good, it really doesn’t hold a candle to Foothills United Way.

The local organization is celebrating 90 years of living united. For nine decades, it has been helping nonprofit organizations maximize their efforts by coordinating the collective strength of individual donors, local businesses, nonprofit partners and community resources.

If you want to be part of the celebration, Foothills United Way is holding a party Nov. 9 at the Omni Interlocken Resort in Broomfield. It will feature dinner, cocktails and the all-vocal band Face.
