Happy Pride Month from all of us at United Way ❤️

Pride means something different to everyone.

For some, it’s celebration. For others, it’s visibility, community, or simply feeling accepted for who they are.

At United Way, we know people are strongest when they feel supported and connected and everyone deserves spaces where they can show up fully as themselves.

This , we’re celebrating the LGBTQ+ community and all the ways people continue showing up for one another every day. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

So many graduation posts! We just had to share this group heading to the HCC FAME program!

Congratulations to these outstanding Webster County High School Dixon, KY (WCHS) seniors who will be joining the 2026 Federation of Advanced Manufacturing Education (FAME) cohort at Henderson Community College (HCC) this fall! 🎉HCC FAME is a work-and-learn opportunity that allows participating students to earn an industry-recognized degree while gaining valuable work experience in industrial maintenance.

HCC Coordinator of Work-Based Learning Amanda Blohm-Thompson recently attended WCHS Senior Honor Night to recognize these students and celebrate their next step toward rewarding careers in advanced manufacturing.

Pictured left to right:

Through the FAME program, these students will gain valuable hands-on experience, classroom instruction, and industry connections that will prepare them for high-demand industrial maintenance careers. We are proud to welcome Manuel, Gavin, and Aiden to the HCC FAME family and look forward to seeing all they accomplish!
