People can catch a movie on the cheap and support the United Way of Lake County all at once.

Atlas Cinemas has paired with the local chapter of the United Way for a pair of movie nights.

On Jan. 24, people can go see a movie at the Diamond Center theater, only pay the matinee price of $6.75 and a dollar will be donated to the United Way.

On Feb. 14, the Great Lakes theater will offer the same bargain.

In both cases, there will be an additional charge to see a 3-D movie.

The local chapter of United Way began its annual fundraising campaign in August. Money raised during the campaign benefits 74 partner programs that the nonprofit organization funds. These programs focus on senior citizens, health and human services, children, families and basic needs.
