Celebrating Our Amazing Volunteers!

Ten years ago Granite United Way was created, the result of six regional United Ways with a vision for an organization that would create greater impact, more efficiently, in our community.

Volunteer leadership at the local level continues to be the backbone of our success, and we thank those who have given so much of their time to improve conditions throughout New Hampshire and Windsor County, Vermont, including those listed here.
