Talbot Mentors, Talbot Special Riders, Tilghman Area Youth Association, United Needs and Abilities and Upper Shore Aging.
“Many were on hand for the distribution of the checks, which is sure to make the season merry and bright for each agency’s clients,” noted Ann Jacobs, United Fund Executive Director. She added that “there is still plenty of time for those who would like to make a donation to this year’s campaign – by mail, phone, or online. We are extremely grateful for the on-going generosity and support of the Talbot County community.”
