With your support the United Way of Colchester County works with organizations in our communities to uncover local issues and develop partnerships for community projects.

They work in partnership with community organizations to strengthen the network of services and build up the capacity within the non-profit community by providing workshops and learning opportunities.

They believe that by building up our relationships within the community, we are all able to combine our resources (time, donations, influence and knowledge) and accomplish more together.
