The Mayor's Table - The Season of Giving
The Mayor's Table: The Season of Giving
Episode 125
As the holiday season brings a renewed focus on community and compassion, the latest episode of The Mayor’s Table shines a spotlight on the work of the San Juan United Way. Mayor Nate Duckett sits down with Cathryn Abeyta, the Executive Director of the United Way, to discuss how the organization is helping local families and nonprofits in need. From providing essential services like rental assistance and mental health support to giving residents the chance to directly contribute to the causes they care about, the United Way plays a crucial role in making sure every dollar raised stays right here in San Juan County. With so many people in need, Cathryn emphasizes how important it is for our community to come together and keep our resources local to create lasting change.
Beyond financial contributions, the episode also highlights the many ways people can get involved. Whether it’s through payroll giving, volunteering, or joining nonprofit boards, there are countless opportunities to make a real difference. As Cathryn points out, small actions, when combined, can have a huge impact. By supporting one another, San Juan County can continue to build a resilient community where everyone has a chance to thrive. It’s a powerful reminder that, especially during the season of giving, even the smallest contributions can create ripple effects that help shape a better future for all.
