Dear Friends,
Seventy years ago, a group of visionary and concerned community residents thoughtfully and carefully launched the Charlottesville and Albemarle War and Community Fund to take care of their neighbors and friends—the founding of our United Way-Thomas Jefferson Area.
And today, seventy years later, engaged, caring community volunteers and farsighted, generous donors share our vision of impactful and sustainable services that make our community a place:
n where children grow up healthy and arrive at school ready to succeed;n that supports individuals and families working to become financially stable and
economically independent; andn where people are healthy and have access to needed care.
Founded in 1943, our United Way-Thomas Jefferson Area is a local, independent, nonprofit organization that has helped generations of children realize their potential, strengthened families and given dignity and hope to our citizens.
The influence of our work extends beyond those to whom services are provided. Our United Way-Thomas Jefferson Area has contributed to the quality of life that all our citizens enjoy, while ensuring that more people access the unique advantages that our region has to offer.
Without a doubt, our United Way-Thomas Jefferson Area continues to evolve and develop strategic responses to critical issues of the day. Where thoughtful, committed and generous leaders and donors stood seventy years ago, now stands another group as committed and visionary as those who have gone before us.
With appreciation, we invite you to join us in creating an even stronger community.

“Now I can start saving for my son’s college.”
A teary-eyed mom, “Sara,” shared her relief as she learned that she had been approved for a United Way Child Care Scholarship. Working full time as an administrative assistant, Sara’s paycheck was stretched to cover rent, gas to drive to work, groceries, insurance and $7,000 a year for basic child care. Without this scholarship, she was unable to save anything for emergencies, much less for her son’s education. Now, she can concentrate on her son’s future.

“Gerald,” a single father of two children, was battling medical issues and was unemployed and homeless in the summer of 2012. With the assistance of a United Way partner program, Gerald overcame his medical issues and was connected to employment at a local assisted living facility as a member of the kitchen staff. In 2013, he was promoted to cook and inside shift supervisor, increasing his pay and confidence. With budget counseling, Gerald was also able to save and buy a car.

“I am thankful every day for this program.”
“Greg” suffers from seizures. Untreated, his seizures make it impossible for him to work. He is now helped by our United Way RxRelief Prescription Assistance Program, which helps uninsured adults in our community access free medications to address chronic conditions. This was a tremendous relief, not just for Greg, but for his mother, who bore the emotional and financial stress of caring for him.

“Tracey” was in an abusive marriage, and was severely overweight and depressed. With counseling provided by a United Way partner program, she found the strength and resilience she needed to leave a volatile husband and start a new life. A year later, Tracey has lost 45 pounds and regained her confidence, which has enabled her to obtain a job with an opportunity for promotion.

Members of our Presidents Circle are donors who have a bold vision – when we focus on School Readiness, Self-Sufficiency, Community Health and Community Engagement, our entire community – each of us – is strengthened.
The Presidents Circle was created to deepen individual understanding of, commitment to, and support of our United Way’s work. The Presidents Circle recognizes local philan-thropic leaders who have devoted time, talent, and funds to create long-lasting changes by supporting our Impact work. Individuals who contribute at least $1,000 annually to the United Way are members of the Presidents Circle.
We thank the members of the Presidents Circle, and we invite you to join them.
