What is United Way of Greater Union County?

Community Matters
All of us who live and work in Greater Union County want to keep our neighborhoods safe and thriving. That's why United Way mobilizes the caring power of local people and organizations to improve local lives.

Focused on Urgent Needs
We understand that no single organization can solve all of our community's needs. United Way's Community Vitality Agenda brings together local governments, business and labor, and other service groups to develop innovative solutions that work. By partnering, we ensure that effective programs produce measurable results in our community.

Multiplying Impact
When you make a donation to United Way, you can always feel assured that your gift is generating a maximum impact. Each year, our certified agencies use United Way donations to get government matching grants that nearly double the impact of your gift.
