12/17/13 - The Livingston County United Way says Triple Money Monday was a phenomenal success, with the community stepping up in a big way. Officials say approximately $130,000 was donated during the one-day event and there were somewhere between 800 and 900 donors. Roughly $110,000 was collected during last yearâs event. Local United Way Executive Director Nancy Rosso says it was a great day for people to make connections but also get a real sense of the giving season. She says they're grateful for their partners, who have a strong belief in the solid work being done through collective efforts in the community. Funds collected on Triple Money Monday are designated specifically to provide basic-needs support for local families and individuals in Livingston County. Match support was provided this year by an anonymous donor, the Howell Rotaryâs Tour de Livingston, Citizens Insurance, DTE Energy Foundation and Blue Cross Blue Shield of MI. (JM)
