Last year, I had the privilege of introducing our community to Sara and David Pennington as United Way of Northwest Georgia’s Campaign Co-Chairs. This year, I get to share something even better: they said yes again.

For Sara and David, serving as Campaign Co-Chairs was never simply about holding a title. It was an opportunity to step further into a legacy of generosity and service that has shaped Northwest Georgia for generations—and to invite others to become part of it.

What a weekend of racing!

There was blood. There was definitely sweat. But no tears were shed as teams from across Northwest Georgia came together for United Way of Northwest Georgia’s 5th Annual Young Leaders Society Kickball Tournament!

As students across our community head back to school, they are preparing for another year of learning, growth, and new opportunities.

While many people are slowing down for the summer, United Way of Northwest Georgia is gearing up for one of the most exciting seasons of the year.

School may be out for the summer, but around United Way of Northwest Georgia, things are just getting started.

February is a month of momentum, about taking the energy of a new year and putting it into action. Across Whitfield and Murray counties, that momentum is already underway, and it’s powered by a community that continues to show up for one another in meaningful ways.
