to support community needs. The grant helps fund United Way’s 2021-2022 Campaign and allows the
organization to provide resources for individuals and families in need.
“Consumers Energy is committed to the communities we serve, which includes supporting Michigan
families and individuals as they work toward brighter days,” said Carolyn Bloodworth, secretary/treasurer
of the Consumers Energy Foundation. “We’re pleased to support Oscoda Area United Way in making
sure our friends and neighbors have the resources they need.”
OAUW partner agencies include Boy Scouts, Carol’s Baby Pantry, Catholic Human Services,
Community Special Projects (unplanned projects from our agencies or requests from other non-profit
organization in our community), Girl Scouts, Hope Shores Alliance, Iosco Coats for Kids, Oscoda Area
