Just a month into its annual campaign, the United Way of the Chattahoochee Valley has 33 percent of its fundraising goal complete.

This puts the United Way almost $34,000 a head of where it was last year at this time.

Campaign Chair, Abbott Turner, says he's extremely grateful for hundreds of dedicated volunteers.

This year five new companies are participating in the campaign for the first time.

This year's goal is $6.9 million.
