We are proud to commemorate a milestone year for United Way as we introduce Granite United Way's blog!
The independent United Ways that came together to form Granite United Way in 2012 had been in existence for many years. We are also part of a movement that is celebrating 125 years of improving lives.
During this milestone, we celebrate those people and organizations - past, present and future - who continue to advance a movement to create opportunities for a better life for all.
In 1887 in Denver, Colorado, a diverse group of community leaders - a woman, a priest, two ministers and a rabbi - came together to improve community conditions. Today, their actions have grown into United Way, the world's largest privately-supported nonprofit. We're proud to be one of the nearly 1,800 United Ways in 41 countries and territories.
Join the movement. You can give. You can advocate. And you can volunteer.
That's what it means to LIVE UNITED.
Thanks for reading...
Here at Granite United Way, we are committed to investing in the areas of the community with the most critical needs - education, income and health. We are recruiting people and organizations from all across the community who bring the passion, expertise and resources needed to get things done and we need you to join us. Give. Advocate. Volunteer. LIVE UNITED.
