United Way
Over the last few months, we have all seen the effects of change. We know how quickly normal can become unknown. And we’ve felt the impact these challenges can take on us and our community.
Often during times of change, there is comfort in the familiar. Throughout these crazy times, United Way has never wavered on our commitment to Greene County and the folks in it. In fact, we partnered with the Community Foundation of Greene County, creating the Greene County Emergency Response Fund to quickly fund local nonprofit organizations on the front lines. So far, we have funded 19 agencies a total of $71,635. In April, Greene County United Way also gave $40,000 to 12 agencies through our Community Impact Grants.
Now, we are preparing for the 18th Annual Stuff the Bus this August because we are dedicated to continuing a program that helps 650 children every year across our county.
But this reliability doesn’t mean we aren’t open to new ideas. In January, the GCUW Board began strategic planning to expand our reach, looking for new ways we can help. We’ve also been planning a new event (actually a couple – watch for the upcoming announcements!) that we would’ve never tried if it weren’t for the current situation. Both the strategic planning and the new events are our way of better serving our community.
GC UW is here to help. We help by providing important resources. We help through partnerships to meet emerging community needs. We help by offering necessary supplies or volunteer opportunities. If you need us, we are here to help. 724-852-1009 / www.greenecountyunitedway.org
Your CBD Store
Awareness and education on products produced directly from the hemp plant is what Your CBD Store owners Beth and Chris Jolliffe want you to understand about the uses of CBD.
While no official claims can be made, many testimonials have been recalled in the relief people are experiencing when using CBD products for both mental health and physical ailments. Many of the Jolliffe’s clients come to their store seeking relief from those ailments and purchase the many CBD products that come in a wide variety of forms. Some of those CBD products include water soluble oils; gummy rings, bears and worms; gel capsules; skincare products; vape products; products for pets; and more.
With CBD’s wide variety of forms and different strengths, full spectrum or broad spectrum, everyone can find a product beneficial for their use. Suffering from many conditions and not getting the relief needed from traditional medicines, Chris sought the use of CBD a few years ago. It changed his life dramatically. This led them to becoming strong advocates of CBD, promoting its benefits, and starting their store in August of 2019.
CBD products are produced as an extract from the hemp plant. The hemp plant is not the marijuana plant. THC, known to produce hallucinogenic effects, is produced in very low amounts from the hemp plant and extracted during the production of CBD for use. Only the full spectrum products offered contain trace amounts of THC at .3%.
