United Way of Greater Greensboro

**OUR FOCUS ON POVERTY** For years, United Way of Greater Greensboro raised and allocated money to a network of agencies that met a variety of worthwhile needs in our community. Times have changed and so have our community’s needs. United Way’s board of directors made a bold decision to focus the organization’s work on breaking the cycle of poverty in our community. Now, United Way is leading the community in the critical mission of ending poverty in greater Greensboro. Over the past few years, we’ve shifted to an open funding process that allows new and existing community partners to join our efforts every two years.
