Thank you for being a United Way Hero of Hope!

Through our Strong Starts for Strong Futures initiative, we focus on giving children and youth the tools they need to grow strong, do well, and live better. In the past, that has included providing meals and warm coats, supporting mental health, and helping young people pursue education and career dreams. With your contributions, we can do even more.

In Franklin and Ripley Counties, more than 1 in 3 families struggle to meet basic needs like food, housing, childcare, and health care. For every family that qualifies for help, two more are left without support. Through Operation Uplift, United Way of Franklin and Ripley Counties and its community partners step in to help hardworking families regain stability and hope.

Every dollar raised supports families in Franklin and Ripley Counties, and through United Way exclusive matching grants, your impact goes even further. United is the Way to a thriving community.

Thank you for giving kids and families a future filled with opportunity, good health, financial security, and resilience. United is the Way.
