When young people have access to safe spaces, supportive mentors, and meaningful activities, amazing things can happen. Thanks to a partnership between the Chattahoochee Council, Boy Scouts of America, and United Way, after-school programs across the Chattahoochee Valley are giving kids the tools they need to succeed. From building confidence to learning critical life skills, these programs are helping the next generation grow into strong, capable leaders in their communities.
A Bold Vision
In the Chattahoochee Valley, more than half of our residents struggle to afford basic necessities. Many are working hard yet still forced to make impossible choices between rent and groceries, medical care, and childcare. These households, known as ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed), are the backbone of our workforce, yet they remain one emergency away from crisis.
At United Way, we are committed to closing this gap. Our goal is ambitious: to reduce poverty in our region by 50% over the next decade. We are determined to make a difference and take bold steps to create positive change.
