Community leaders came
together in 1955 to form the United Giver's Fund of Maury County with the purpose of more effectively meeting the needs of the people in the community. In the late 1980's organization leaders recognized the benefits iof networking with other similar organizations across the state and nation.
The decision was made to become a local United Way affiliate. Your local United Way affiliate is a member of United Way of America and the United Ways of
Tennessee. This does not diminish the local nature of the organization, but actually strengthens it with improved resources, educational opportunities and access to vital services. As a United Way affiliate, we pay less than 1% of funds raised to the United Way of America. That leaves 99% of our funds to be used locally!
United Way of Maury County is an independent, local organization working to create lasting changes in people's lives and the communities it serves.
How to LIVE UNITED.

When we reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all
-
We all win when a child succeeds in school, when families are financially stable, and when people have good health

These results and changes have benefits that ripple out to the community as a whole
