"Hurricane Matthew has really put a burden on groups like United Way to help those in need.  \n\nAnd now, they're getting some financial help.. BankSouth has donated $20,000&amp;nbsp;to The United Way of the&amp;nbsp;Coastal Empire to help with recovery efforts from Hurricane Matthew.  \n\nThis additional money is very important to those efforts and will be put to good use.  \n\n\"We're able to purchase our food at five pounds for a dollar through the America's Second Harvest,\" said Gregg Schroeder, President, CEO, United Way of Coastal Empire. \"We're getting discounts on other basic human needs, food supplies, gas cards and things of this nature, so we're doing the very best we can to help the people through this difficult time.\"  \n\n\"We thought the best idea and I&amp;nbsp;encourage others in the community to give directly to United Way,\" said Kay Ford, 2016 United Way Campaign Chair, and Bank South. \"And United Way can use those funds in the areas where they're needed and disperse them to the people that need the help.\"&amp;nbsp;   \n\n  \n\nIf you're in need of help, United Way will be operating it's service line this weekend from 9am-3pm. Just call 211.  "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
