When they were both children, Brad Smallwood and his sister were diagnosed with muscular dystrophy. Fortunately, Erinoak was there to help.
The United Way agency offered support groups and counselling to his family and taught Brad how to cope with the disease, physically and emotionally.
Today, Brad is a confident, ambitious young man and says, “I don’t think I’d be any of the person I am today if it wasn’t for United Way...” Brad is currently pursuing a university degree, and “gives back” by volunteering at United Way.
