River Region United Way
The women of the River Region United Way work to provide funds for health , education and financial stability in support of its community agency partners on the frontlines that provide a wide range of services to those in need .
WE ’ RE EXCITED ABOUT celebrating 100 years of service to the community !
WE ’ VE LEARNED THE HARD WAY that you can ’ t remain the same ; you have to constantly change with the times or you may lose your purpose .
THE TOOLS OF OUR TRADE include servant hearts , agents of change and passion for the least of those among us .
WE ARE PROUD OF having the first woman president leading us into the next century .
OUR DONORS GIVE TO US BECAUSE they know the River Region United Way is a good steward of their donated dollars , and those dollars go directly back into the community for good . address pressing community needs , serving these original nine agencies : The Anti-Tuberculosis League , Boy Scouts , Children ’ s Home , Girl Scouts , Red Cross : Family Service , Salvation Army , Woman ’ s Home , Y . W . C . A and Male Infirmary .
WE VALUE our response and support of the agencies that work on the frontlines , our compassionate community of givers , our transparency and our good stewardship .
CURRENTLY , WE ARE WORKING ON reevaluating our purpose in responding to the needs in our community by supporting those agencies that provide education , health and financial stability to those in need .
WE HOPE WOMEN WILL break the status quo and rise to their purpose and potential !
