Though the totals are not final, projections show that the United Way of Central Missouri supporters have once again proved they do not just wear the shirt, they live it.

Ann Bax, president of the United Way of Central Missouri, announced Wednesday the projected totals show the 2010 campaign has so far netted $1,626,254 -- more than $6,000 over the goal of $1.62 million.
