Florence Y'alls News Release
On Tuesday, June 12th, the City of Florence will be coming together to celebrate a night of fun and baseball at the Home of the Florence Freedom, all while supporting a local charity that provides so much to the Florence community.
United Ministries is a non-profit ministry that serves individuals and families residing in southern Kenton and Boone counties, and they will be the benefactor when the Freedom take the field against the London Rippers on Tuesday when online ticket sales and sponsorship sales go directly back to the organization.
"Our mission is to assist families by establishing a comprehensive system of response to the emergency needs of persons or families residing in the area," United Ministries director Rebecca Ewing said. "We offer food, clothing, household items, and financial assistance to those in need."
To assist the United Ministries organization, the Florence Freedom and Florence Mayor Diane E. Whalen, have worked together in organizing the June 12th event for local businesses and residents to come out and support their close to home charity.
