Tygart Valley United Way mobilizes our community to action so all can thrive.
Our Thriving Community Plan was shaped by conversations, data, and input from residents and partners across our five county region. It identifies the challenges facing our communities, the opportunities where we can make the greatest difference, and a path forward built around four Bold Goals.
These goals recognize that the issues affecting our neighbors are deeply connected. Strong families help young people succeed. Financial security supports better health and greater stability. Resilient communities are better prepared to respond when challenges arise. Progress in one area strengthens our entire region.
But these goals are bigger than United Way. Achieving them will take nonprofits, businesses, schools, healthcare providers, government, faith communities, donors, volunteers, and residents working together toward a stronger future.
