Bouncing Back, Episode 4: Derby Day, United Way of Sumter, Clarendon and Lee Counties

We brought back Danielle Thompson to talk about Derby Day, an annual fundraiser for United Way of Sumter, Clarendon and Lee Counties. The Kentucky Derby itself may be short and exciting, but Danielle has helped create a whole day and fun -- and fundraising -- out of the event, and it has grown each year until COVID-19 canceled it last year and now this year.

Later in the episode, you'll hear from Mindy Popovich, president of United Way, about all the great ways the organization helps people in need.
