This special episode of “Forsyth Business Radio” is brought to you by Cooper & Company General Contractors highlighting The United Way of Forsyth County & Solvay.
The United Way of Forsyth:
In collaboration with community partners and neighbors, they identify our community’s most pressing needs. Seeking to address the root causes of those problems through strategic investments and partnerships that achieve measurable, lasting results.
They believe the innovative way they’re rallying partners across government, business, philanthropy, faith communities, non-profits and the private sector will achieve lasting social change. It’s not enough to simply work together to tackle complex social issues. Each participant must focus intently on our common goals, aligning time, dollar, and staff resources, and holding each other accountable so they can make the greatest difference possible. This “collective” approach has shown to improve results and are being applied these concepts in the areas of education, homelessness, and other critical issues to ensure our community achieves greater and greater success.
