“Among the many things I learned this year is that the Greensboro community has so many worthy charitable needs that all of them cannot possibly be met. I came away, however, convinced that United Way of Greensboro is the most efficient and effective way to address those needs.”

In response to feedback from the AAL’s Community Engagement survey, United Way will launch the African American Male Initiative in 2011. The initiative will provide tutoring, mentoring, and leadership development to African American males in low performing schools.

Women’s Leadership empowers a community of women to become philanthropic leaders.
Approximately 450 diverse women contribute $1,000 or more annually to United Way to improve the lives of children and families.
Together they create opportunities to cultivate leadership skills while networking and volunteering throughout Greensboro.
The first annual Handbags Against Hunger fundraiser raised funds for children in Guilford County who are without food and adequate nutrition.
Over 450 Young Leaders (YL) make a positive and lasting impact by volunteering and contributing $120 or more annually.
Young Leaders hosted Winter Wonderland, an evening to celebrate philanthropy in Greater Greensboro benefitting Partners Ending Homelessness. Winter Wonderland connected young professionals to established community leaders with the overarching goal to create positive change in the Greensboro community.
Fifty Young Leaders volunteered, walked, and/or ran in The Human Race, sponsored annually by the Volunteer Center. The team raised over $3,000 for United Way and were recognized as the 2nd place walking team overall.
