History

The United Way of Thomas County first started as a “Community Chest” in 1946. Since that time, we have grown to serve our community in a tradition that has spanned more than 70 years.

​

Today, our United Way raises about $235,000 annually that is directly distributed to 18 member agencies. These agencies provide critical services for food, clothing, shelter, day care, school programs, safe environments for the abused, training programs for the disabled and disaster relief.

​

United Way is your way to make a lifelong impact in the lives of others!
