Employees from the Lee County Tax Collector presented 103 handmade blankets to The Salvation Army of Lee, Hendry, & Glades Counties and Children's Network of Southwest Florida, both United Way partner agencies as part of an annual United Way Day of Caring project. This year marks the 10th distribution with over 670 blankets donated to date. Thank you Evie Platt for organizing this project! Many people in Lee County are warmer and comfortable tonight because of the generosity of these volunteers.
