United, We Stand
The United Way changes lives throughout Greene County by identifying community needs, supporting the services that meet those needs and providing results to our residents. These programs offer solutions to critical county issues, including supporting seniors, health and wellness, emergency assistance and investing in the education of our youth.
In 2019, more than 40,000 people received services from Greene County United Way funded programs.

A NOTE FROM THE PRESIDENT
|
Welcome to 2020 - a new decade! Last year, the United Way focused on our community, spotlighting local agencies who continually make a difference and the programs that aid our youth, our elderly and everyone in between. I know this year will be full of the same AND MORE! As you look to the future (and the potential of the new year), I personally ask you to invest in our community and help those in need through a donation to the Greene County United Way. Your gift is a wonderful way to say, "I believe I can make a difference!" and will be used to strengthen the programs and services our county needs. You can easily donate once - or all year long - through our online giving here. And together, we can help everyone have a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year.
Lisa Petro, GCUW Board President P.S. Many organizations make a matching donation, so ask your employer if they will match your gift to help others in need. |

Through positive relationship development and role modeling, each mentor empowers a child to reach their fullest potential in spite of the challenges and obstacles they face.
