Mission

United Way of Randolph County provides leadership to raise funds and to partner with others to build a stronger, healthier community.

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 over the past 50 years.

As the needs of the community have changed, United Way has adopted three impact areas:
EDUCATION, INCOME and HEALTH. Last year, United Way raised $1.1 Million locally to fund communtiy based programs. Through 20 local agencies, United Way of Randolph Countyis Making a difference in our community.
