The United Way of St. Clair County has chosen Sharon Wilton as the 2021 Campaign Champion. She was recognized for her many years of volunteering and positive attitude.
Wilton told us that she has been a contributor to the United Way since 1987. She said, “While working at AT&T, I led our employee giving campaign and served on the Citizen’s Review Committee at United Way. Being a part of the Citizen’s Review Committee really opened our eyes as to the need in our community, for many human services.”
Wilton said that in 2015 she became a recipient of services when she suffered a serious medical condition and missed several weeks of work, without pay. She said she was so appreciative, as she was a single mom and struggled to get back on her feet.
Wilton said, “I have gone full circle and I am proud to co-chair the upcoming campaign for a non-profit that is so important to our community and to me!”
The United Way of St. Clair County reached 16,000 St. Clair County residents in 2021.
