GCUW Spotlight
Blueprints
GCUW is proud to partner with Blueprints and support their RSVP program, which provides Home Delivered Meals to the young at heart in Greene County!
Blueprints is a 501c3 change agency that shapes futures by equipping and educating people to improve their lives. They operates 35+ programs that now help nearly 20,000 people annually, serving our community from cradle to gray and providing assistance at all income levels, though most fall in the lower income bracket. All of Blueprints services are delivered in a “quilted” or seamless manner, in order to provide entire families with options needed to maximize self-sufficiency. It is their intention to provide a depth of service that changes the trajectory of people’s lives and works to sustain those changes over time.

2022 United Way Campaign
GCUW 2022 CampaignOver the last year, GCUW has stepped up our fight for the people of our community, ensuring that the most necessary programs remained and thrived. In 2022, our goal is to connect… connect people to resources, connect volunteers to opportunities, and connect leadership to long standing local issues. But to do this, we need your help.
On behalf of GCUW, we ask you to commit to making an impact where you live and/or work. Through generous donations like yours, YOU are helping libraries touch lives through educational programming. YOU are offering abused individuals a safe space and vulnerable adults a hot meal. YOU are providing food to those who are struggling and helping when a disaster strikes. Next year, GCUW will offer many ways to make an immediate impact in Greene County. All we need is YOU. |
