Live United. More Than a Mission. More Than a Goal. That’s the theme of the United Way of Coastal Georgia (UWCGA)’s 2021-22 Annual Campaign, which launched last month and will run through February 2022.
“In Coastal Georgia, UWCGA works to increase self-sufficiency for every person in our community through resources and programs related to health, education and income stability,” said Justin Callaway, President & CEO. “Through investment in and partnership with local agencies, we strive to deliver strategic solutions related to child/youth readiness, stable environments, and workforce development. For 65 years, our organization has worked with local businesses, nonprofits, government, and civic- and faith-based groups, along with educators, health providers, senior citizens, young leaders, and other influencers to continue to build stronger communities in Glynn and McIntosh.”
Community
United Way is able to accomplish its mission year after year thanks to generous individuals and organizations who show their support through their financial contributions during the Annual Campaign as well as the invaluable gift of their time and talents. This year, they aim to exceed the fundraising goal of $850,000.
“Earlier this year, we expanded our service area to include Camden County, as well,” Callaway announced. “We look forward to providing the same level of service and leadership to our neighbors in Camden as has come to be expected in Glynn and McIntosh.” Although the UWCGA business operation will continue to be based in Brunswick, Callaway says the organization will have impact at the local level in all three counties, especially as they begin to fund programs operated by Camden, Glynn, and McIntosh nonprofits. He states,“Our local United Way remains committed to providing relevant, impactful service throughout the Coastal Georgia region.” More money raised means more impact and more people who can be assisted through UWCGA funded programs.
