In the past 5 years the UE has been around., we have grown and look forward to our growth in the future. 

Every article that is written is with our readers in mind. We provide articles that promotes conversation, empowers, and provides information. We have a diverse group of readers who look forward to each monthly issue. We want to be the voice for the community, and partner with organizations and businesses.

I view our relationships with advertisers not just strictly business, but a partnership with a mutual goal: To educate. We believe that education is the key to life, and provides knowledge to an individual so that they can impact their own community, city, and state. The confidence our readers have in the UE extends to our advertising pages.

Let’s work together . We want to continue to partner with you to provide our readers information about your organization.
