United Way of Randolph County was founded in 1956 as the
United Fund of Greater Asheboro. The first campaign goal was only $36,000, but
with Mr. T. Henry Redding serving as the chair, over $56,000 was raised to
benefit 10 agencies. Since then, the citizens of Randolph County have come a
very long way allowing the United Way of Randolph County to invest over $25
million to the community over the past 50 years.
