United Way of Greater High Point develops community resources and partnerships that support a broad array of critical health and human service needs in our community. Resources are focused on community impact programs that promote and improve education, health and income in the Greater High Point. HISTORY After almost a year spent planning and talking with local leaders, the United Way of High Point, then called the "Community Chest" and led by Mr. H.A. Millis, first held an organizational meeting on September 12, 1935. A headline in that day's High Point Enterprise read, "Community Chest will be organized tonight." The caption stated, "A gathering will be held at 8 o'clock tonight for purpose of electing Board of Trustees and mapping out plans for the season." Eighty people attended that first meeting of what is today called the United Way of Greater High Point. Mr. R.T. Amos was elected the first President of the Board of Directors, and the five original partner agencies were the American Red Cross, The Salvation Army, the YMCA, the YWCA, and the Boy Scouts. The first fund-raising campaign began on October 14, 1935, with a goal of $33,677.32,"and it lasted four days! Today, United Way of Greater High Point continues a proud tradition of that original stewardship and commitment to our community. We currently fund 69 programs at 29 partner agencies, including the original five, and hundreds of volunteers help us raise and allocate the funding that supports them.
