Why Give?
When you donate to United Way of Coastal Carolina, you're joining thousands of others who want more children and families to be educated, stable and supported! We all win when a child succeeds in school, when a neighborhood turns around, when families are strong and stable, and when people get the help they need.
By preventing problems and changing social conditions, we build a stronger and healthier community for everyone. You can trust that United Way will use your donation in the most efficient and effective way possible to support local programs that get results.
We invite you to be part of the change. When you give to United Way of Coastal Carolina, you're raising more than money. You're raising hope! That’s what it means to LIVE UNITED.
