Welcome to United Way of Wilkes County
Description
"The mission of the United Way of Wilkes, Inc. is to involve the entire community in identifying our community's needs, developing financial resources and partnering with programs to meet these needs."
The United Way of Wilkes County was incorporated and certified as a non-profit 501 (c) (3) agency in November of 1953. The original board members who worked so hard to make this effort a reality were Richard Johnston, Maurice Walsh, W. D. Halfacre, J. B. Carter and Dr. John T. Wayland.
Originally, the organization was called Wilkes County United Fund, Inc. and worked with a small group of traditional agencies which included the American Red Cross, Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts and the YMCA. Today, with a growing concern to meet the needs of our community, our United Way funds 30+ local agencies and programs that address Crisis and Basic Needs, Family and Literacy, Health and Counseling, Persons with Disabilities, Senior Services, Youth Activities and Youth at Risk.
