Community Partners
In 2007 the West Georgia community raised $1,247,107 for the United Way of West Georgia, Inc. We want to give a great big THANK YOU to all who support the mission of the United Way with your time, talent and treasure! Because of the strong support of our Corporate and Business partners and the many individuals who invest in our community through the United Way of West Georgia, this is truly an exceptionally caring place to live. There were more that 100 people working on the Campaign under the excellent leadership of Campaign Chairman Jim Thornton. Because of the hard work and perseverance of these dedicated volunteers, our 28 agencies will be able to continue to work to change the community and improve the lives of all who live here. Our Allocation Volunteers did an outstanding job of distributing the funds so they will have the greatest impact in our community. When one person’s life is improved, we all benefit.
