The mission of the Rowan County United Way is to provide community-wide leadership in developing the resources and means to deliver needed human care services in the following ways:

 

Consolidate fundraising to support continuous growth of necessary services
 

Promote ongoing education in all areas: community, business, and agencies
 

Evaluate and advise member agencies on effective use of resources
 

Assess community needs through short- and long-range planning to assure the provision of balanced services to the community

Rowan County United Way brings the community together to help people improve their lives. By wisely investing the community’s time, money and caring, we accomplish this together.


Whether helping individuals find clothing, food, medical and dental care, or housing, the Rowan County United Way is the community catalyst for delivering help where it is needed the most.
