At United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County, we mobilize and support a robust network of people, partners, and resources to co-create opportunities for every person in our community to live free from poverty and injustice.
We have a BOLD COMMUNITY GOAL that, by 2035, ALL Asheville City and Buncombe County students graduate from high school ready and fully prepared to pursue their goals and dreams.
As a United for Youth (U4Y) Partner, the YWCA Asheville has committed to the Bold Community Goal. YWCA Asheville shatters barriers and bridges gaps for women and families. YWCA Asheville is dedicated to eliminating racism, empowering women, and promoting justice, freedom, and dignity for all. Programs address critical community needs at the intersection of racial justice and women’s empowerment, supporting children and families in our community.
The United Way of Asheville and Buncombe County invites you to join us for a Day of Connection on August 20th from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the YWCA. This is a wonderful opportunity to come together, give back, and support the impactful work of the YWCA. The event will include 1 hour 45 minutes of service followed by the YWCA’s Empower Hour where they will give you a tour of their site and programs and provide a meal.
