What Drew Me to UWGT?

The United Way has both the track record of, and the future capacity to, enact systems-level change in the nonprofit sector through community-directed programs and funding opportunities. I am grateful for the chance to be a part of a team that is strategically focused on bringing communities together to solve problems and drive positive change for every person who lives and works in the Greater Triangle.
