Debra Dorsey of Rogers sorts good boxes from bad Wednesday at Open Avenues, which receives money from the United Way of Northwest Arkansas.
United Way of Northwest Arkansas will give at least $3.5 million this year to area nonprofit organizations. The amount is short of the 2011’s $3.9 million fundraising goal, but charity officials hope more donations come in.
AT A GLANCE
