Join the UWNC Partner Network

---

We know that the most effective community change is based on a foundation of collaboration. Together we are able to work toward helping all Nevada County residents meet the basic needs of food, health, and clothing.

United Way of Nevada County (UWNC) partners with organizations that share our view that the way to improve lives is by directing community resources to local needs. The commitment to addressing basic needs, such as helping alleviate food insecurity, providing warm clothing to those in need, and making access to health care a priority, among other things, is very important. 

There are many benefits to becoming a United Way of Nevada County (UWNC) Partner. It enhances your organization’s credibility, and let's your clients and customers know that your organization reaches out to care about this community.
