SHOWN IN THE PHOTO are, from left, Bob Beaumont, United Way of Mid Coast Maine board of directors chairman; Mike Field, Bath chief of police and United Way campaign chairman; and Barbara Reinertsen, executive director of United Way of Mid Coast Maine, as they prepared to kick off the 2012 fundraising campaign Thursday at Maine Maritime Museum in Bath. The work of the organization, corporate partners and individual volunteers was recognized with a video presentation developed by Bath Iron Works. This year’s fundraising goal is $1,960,000, just $2,000 more than the organization raised last year. “It’s not a complicated equation,” Reinertsen said. “Dollars equal lives.” Last year, United Way helped more than 20,000 people in areas related to education, financial stability and health care.
