United Way of Forsyth County

If you are looking for ways to help those impacted by Hurricane Helene, United Way of Forsyth County encourages you to make hurricane relief contributions to the UW Helps NC Fund, which was initiated by United Way of North Carolina. This fund is designed to support both immediate and long-term recovery efforts in communities impacted by the recent severe weather. ? For more information and to contribute online visit?unitedwaync.org. Donors can designate their contributions to a specific County or allow United Way of North Carolina to allocate funds to the areas of greatest need.?

Last week, an incredible group of volunteers from Wells Fargo came together to create “Welcome Home” kits containing household items for 50 individuals/families who are emerging from social, emotional, and socioeconomic challenges that previously prevented them from living in a stable home environment. The Welcome Home kits will help alleviate the burden of outfitting a new home, enabling these households to focus on building financial security, mental well-being, and social integration. There were four types of Welcome Home kits made, each focusing on a different area of the home: kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and cleaning supplies. Thank you, thank you Wells Fargo! #WellsFargo #WFVolunteers #BankofDoing @suziekoonce Juan Austin @jimmyphillips
