Paul Pepper: Andrew Grabau, Heart of Missouri United Way, "Community Impact"

"I mentioned the 37% of our kids in the 3rd grade who are reading at a proficient or advanced level. We know, through measuring the programs at United Way...91% of those children exceed the benchmarks and improve their academic scores. So we know that our programs - in this regard - are working, and that's what we want! -- ANDREW GRABAU, Heart of Missouri United Way executive director August 15, 2023
