about us

The mission of United Way of Sumner County is to improve the quality of life in Sumner County as a place to grow up, raise a family, work, achieve our dreams, and grow older. We are a local non-profit mobilizing communities to action so everyone can thrive. Since 1977, we’ve worked to address our community’s greatest challenges and create meaningful solutions. We look at how our community’s challenges are connected, then bring people and resources together to address them. By listening to local needs and responding to everyday challenges and moments of crisis, we create pathways to better health, youth opportunity, financial security, and community resilience. Working together with our neighbors, we’re building stronger, healthier, and more resilient communities for all.
