What is United Way?
What is United Way?
United Way of Colquitt County, based in Moultrie, Georgia, is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that focuses on creating community-based and community-led solutions that strengthen the cornerstones for a good quality of life: education, financial stability and health.
Every year we set a goal to raise money to support over 40 programs through 20 local non-profit organizations. We work with corporate partners, large employers, major firms, small businesses sector, and individual donors to partner with local non-profits to focus on three areas that we feel encompass our community needs: Education, Health and Financial Stability. We target these areas by using statistics based on the need of our county. Any surplus funds from a campaign are directly put back into the community through Community Impact Grants and Special Grants.
Like we always say, “Money raised here stays here.”
When you give to United Way of Colquitt County, you are helping to feed, educate and promote higher quality of life for 44,656 of our most vulnerable neighbors.
