“Looking Back and Leading Forward” is more than just a campaign slogan- it’s our history, our legacy and our continued commitment to tackling the tough issues. United Way of Greater Kingsport has been driving positive and sustainable change in our community by uniting people, businesses, and organizations since 1934. Today, as housing issues, inflation and the lingering effects of the pandemic continue to make life difficult, UWGK remains steadfast in our mission to improve lives. For over 90 years, United Way of Greater Kingsport has been fighting for the health, education, and financial stability of EVERY person who lives here.
When others step back, We LEAD FORWARD.
We LEAD FORWARD by helping Children and Youth Succeed.
We LEAD FORWARD by ensuring Health, Safety and Stability.
We LEAD FORWARD by promoting Self-Sufficiency.
We harness the caring power of the community to make Kingsport a place everyone can thrive. But we can’t do it alone. Together, we can break the cycle of poverty. Together, we can promote early grade literacy. Together we can change lives. Together, we can Lead Forward!
