DALTON, Mass. — Berkshire Money Management is supporting Berkshire United Way's (BUW) #HereForGood Volunteer Month. 

 

As part of this year's initiative, the wealth management company with offices in Dalton and Great Barrington, has contributed $10,000 in sponsorship support, staff volunteer hours, and use of the Model Farm to host BUW's annual Live United Community Celebration on Wednesday, May 18.

 

"Giving back to the local community is a core part of our company culture," said Berkshire Money Management co-founder and active United Way volunteer Stacey Carver. "Berkshire United Way sees, understands, and is working in so many ways to address the needs of the individuals in our county who struggle to feed themselves and their families. Volunteering for BUW is one of the most humbling and joyous things I've done in my life, and we as a team are proud to partner with this vital organization to improve quality of life in the Berkshires."

 

In addition to their $10,000 sponsorship gift, Berkshire Money Management will host the United Way's Live United Community Celebration at their Dalton office location – better known as the Model Farm – at 161 Main Street on Wednesday, May 18, from 4 to 6 pm.
