ADVOCATE

Let your voice be heard

What does it mean to advocate?

It’s standing up for others and what we believe in. Whatever you feel strongly about, whether it's children being able to reach their full potential or caring for those who are aging, we all have the power to make a difference in our community by finding our voice and joining it with others.

United Way knows that it takes more than money to create real and sustained change in community conditions.It requires relationships with donors, volunteers, business and community leaders, partner agencies, other non-profit agencies and our local, state and federal elected officials to inspire hope and create opportunities for a better tomorrow.

Anyone can be an advocate to advance the common good. Tell a neighbor about a program that provides health care for those who can’t afford insurance. Ask a coworker to support the United Way campaign in your workplace. Reach out to a member of the state legislature or congress. Wear a LIVE UNITED t-shirt. Talk to your child’s teacher or principal about why some children aren’t graduating. Learn about child abuse and neglect and how it affects everyone.Read about issues that face our community and what you can do to help.

Champion a cause. Reach out. Speak up. Let your voice be heard in helping us fulfill our mission to improve lives in Hall County
