United Way of Loudon County

Our experience tells us the best way to help the most people is to focus on the underlying causes of the most serious problems. Here in our community, we’re focused on critical issues like:

helping individuals have access to healthcare
providing children and adults with education and life skills
ensuring basic needs and emergency services are available

It takes the whole community working together to reach our goals in these areas. So we bring people together from all across the community— government, business, faith groups, non profits, and concerned citizens. If it requires fundraising or getting people to work together, that’s what we do.

Your United Way contribution works to bring lasting change right here because that’s what matters.

The United Way of Loudon County has ended the 2012 Campaign raising $427,685!

We want to thank everyone in our community who helped us. Many thanks go out to the individuals who gave and volunteered throughout the campaign.
Our gratitude goes to the many employees of Kimberly-Clark, Tate & Lyle, ORNL, Y-12, Covenant Health and UCOR for their continued support. In addition, we recognize the many local businesses & schools that realize the importance of building a stronger community. The generous support of the Harvey Hubbell Foundation and the George R. Johnson Family Foundation is greatly appreciated.

Our special events would not have been a huge successes without our loyal sponsors and volunteers. The generous help of ETRSSCA, Pilot, Lenoir City Ford, ORNL Federal Credit Union, TN Waste and the many agency volunteer helped make our Driving to Make a Difference a huge success. To Kimberly-Clark for our first successful 5-K run, we say thank you. And to the Greenback Emergency Rescue Squad, we say thank you for another fun evening at your chili dinner.

A great big thank you to Tellico Village and the Campaign Steering Committee for their continuing support. Special thanks to the Tellico Village Volunteer Fire Department volunteers and to the GM Club"s for Pump Day! You set an example of how a neighborhood can make a difference in their community.

For all the wonderful media coverage, we thank WBIR, Tellico Village Channel 3 and the News-Herald!

United Way’s priorities reflect our community’s changing needs. Throughout the year, United Way is mobilizing trained volunteers to study those needs, and only after careful consideration, do they choose to invest resources where they will get measurable results.

United Way works diligently and responsibly to maximize our donors’ investments. By partnering with volunteers to assist in the annual campaign and encouraging collaboration among our community partners, United Way is able to ensure that your gift has a greater impact.
