With the success of October’s in-person Whirlpool Appliance Sale, United Way of Southwest Michigan and Whirlpool Corp. are coming back together to offer the public even more appliances at deeply discounted rates as part of the Online Appliance Sale.

Thursday, November 14, teams from all over Berrien, Cass, and Van Buren county took their rakes, gloves, and rain gear to yards throughout the area to help seniors in need of yard maintenance.

The American Electric Power (AEP) Foundation has awarded Be Healthy Berrien a $45,000 grant to enhance access to nutritious, locally sourced foods in Benton Harbor through the Healthy Corner Store Initiative and the Benton Harbor Farmers Market. These initiatives aim to improve food access for local residents and foster a healthier community.

The organization is seeking service provider quotes for Cleaning Services and Lawn Maintenance by November 22, 2024.

The Whirlpool Appliance Sale will take place Saturday, October 12 from 8am-4pm, and Sunday, October 13 from 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. at the 211 Hilltop Business Center building in St. Joseph (entrance 74).
