Our Mission
"To increase the organized capacity
for people to care for one another."
Know the United Way story.
United Way was established in 1964 to carry
out one fund
drive to fund locally necessary social services. One gift using payroll deduction gives all year
long
to help meet community needs.
Know who we support.
Giving to United Way helps support
33 individual programs provided by community partners. There are four
focus areas of program funding.
Why give to United Way?
The
United Way campaign is the most cost effective way to support the crucial
services provided by Community Partners serving the residents of Columbia County. A payroll deduction gives all year
long.
How does United Way help?
Through a gift to United Way you help support services county wide to people
right here in your community. Funds raised here stay here.
Who determines how my gift is spent?
Local volunteers from the United Way Board carefully
review Community Partner applications and services, determine these services to be critical to our
community's health and safety, and are helping make a difference in people's
lives. These
are individuals who care about our community and are committed
to making it a better place to live and raise a family.
