Leaders in Giving Our Mission Our United Way leads in uniting the community to bring together resources to identify and effectively address our community’s most vital human needs. United Way of Forsyth County The organization we know today as United Way of Forsyth County was organized in 1923 under the banner of the Community Chest. The Community Chest of Forsyth County federated the finances of twenty local health and welfare organizations, raising the money in one annual campaign and distributing it according to need among its member organizations. The Community Chest’s campaigns were called “Red Feather” drives. The first Community Chest goal was $28,000 with $38,215 actually raised. Over the decades that followed, the name of the organization changed as has our mission. In 1951, the Community Chest became the United Fund of Winston-Salem and Forsyth County. In 1974, the United Fund adopted the name still in use today: United Way of Forsyth County. Our Mission and History Our mission has evolved from being a community fundraiser in support of a family of partner agencies to one of addressing the root causes of our community’s most critical human issues while still supporting a safety net of services for those in immediate need. The 2008 Campaign, led by BB&T’s Steven Wiggs, raised $17,423.087, despite a very difficult economy. Over 400 organizations and more than 40,000 individuals participated in the 2008 Campaign. 2
Dear Friends, Leaders in Giving Thank you for your generous gift. As a Leadership Circle giver, you are among our community’s most charitable philanthropists. Because of you, more young men and women will graduate from high school. Families will become more financially secure through new or better jobs. Your gift will help improve health in our community and reduce family violence. And of particular importance in these difficult times, it will strengthen United Way’s support of programs providing basic needs such as food, clothing, and shelter. Leaders in Giving On behalf of United Way, its partner agencies, and the tens of thousands served annually, we are grateful for your generosity. Steven B. Wiggs 2008 Campaign Chair 3 Stanhope A.
