In the wake of the devastation left behind by Hurricane Helene, United Way of Southwest Virginia has stepped forward as the lead organization to raise funding for the emergency response and long-term recovery efforts in Southwest Virginia. UWSWVA has initiated the 2024 SWVA Regional Disaster Relief Fund and will seed the first $25,000. All proceeds will directly support relief and recovery programs. The organization is collaborating with local government agencies, businesses, and fellow non-profits to ensure aid reaches those most in need swiftly and efficiently. UWSWVA is calling on individuals, businesses, and organizations to contribute to the relief effort by donating. All funds will be allocated to both immediate relief efforts and long-term recovery initiatives, ensuring that no family is left behind in the rebuilding process.

关于我们
About United Way of Southwest Virginia United Way has been working in Southwest Virginia, including the New River Valley, for 60 years. Over that time, we have adjusted our work and shifted our focus from treating symptoms to addressing root causes. We have moved from being recognized as a premier fundraiser and funds distributor to an organization focused on prevention, which produces a greater return on investment. In addition to this shift in thinking, we have taken a more regional approach, providing programs and services to 21 localities, leveraging our region’s strengths and collective assets. This has allowed us to bring unparalleled resources to the region. Our programs and services have received high honors and support from national organizations such as the Appalachian Regional Commission, Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and, in 2017, the organization was an inaugural recipient of the Virginia Governor’s Award for Excellence and Innovation in Education. Today, United Way of Southwest Virginia employees a 40 member team with some of the most talented subject matter experts in the region. Outside of our staff, we involve experts, leaders, practitioners, neighborhoods, community members, and governments. We work across partisan and income divides, leading community conversations and bringing people from all walks of life into the conversation. Whether we’re leading a coalition, developing an initiative, driving agencies to common outcomes, or creating collective impact, United Way is a driving force – in communities and for Southwest Virginia.
