UNITED WAY OF GREATER KNOXVILLE

Since that time we have worked to understand local needs, mobilize volunteers, to raise awareness and money to meet community needs by granting money to programs that align with predetermined goals. Our name changed and we evolved into United Way in 1972. Our focus and strategy have evolved over the last 100 years, but the goal is the same... United Way of Greater Knoxville, in solidarity with our black, brown, and indigenous communities, stands firm in our organizational position which opposes all forms of racism and discrimination. We are resolved that our intentional commitment to anti-racism not only be stated but also be boldly reflected through our service, our partnerships and our organizational culture... At United Way of Greater Knoxville, we bring people together to create lasting change in our community. We are working across a five county footprint to uplift our neighbors.
