Get Connected, Stay Connected

Only 2 Weeks Left to Win Big—While Fueling Local Change

Because this isn’t just a giveaway—it’s a movement. It’s about what happens when we show up, share, and stay connected.

At United Way Grays Harbor, we believe the power to change lives isn’t locked in big systems—it lives in YOU.

Whether you’re someone who gives, someone who serves, or someone looking for a place to land—you are part of this community.And that means: you matter here.

Right Now, There’s an Easy Way to Get Connected

Our Chill Out Summer Giveaway is more than a chance to win fun prizes or a dream vacation (though yes—there’s that too). It’s a way to plug into the work that keeps our community strong.

Every entry spreads the word.Every share brings someone new into the story. Every small action builds something bigger—we are better together.

💙 Because This Is About All of Us

In every corner of our community, people are working hard to build a better life:

• A parent finishing school while raising a child

• A teenager navigating life without enough support

• A senior wondering how they’ll get groceries this week

• A nonprofit stretched thin trying to meet growing needs
  

Whether you need support or want to offer it—YOU belong in this story.

What Happens When YOU Stay Connected?

YOU help fill the gaps.

When a delivery truck breaks down, food still reaches those who need it.When grant funding falls through, programs don’t disappear—they adapt and stay open.Because of YOU, our partners don’t just survive setbacks—they grow through them.

🚸 YOU help families rise.

Your support goes beyond shelter. It funds job training, life skills, renter readiness, and tools that give people real choices and lasting stability.

📚 YOU support lifelong growth.

It’s not just childcare. It’s graduation support for teen parents, early learning for toddlers, and parenting programs that break generational cycles.

🥫 YOU make every meal matter.

Because a meal isn’t just food—it’s strength. It’s dignity. It’s the comfort of knowing someone sees and cares.

This Is About More Than Programs.

It’s about people. It’s about YOU.

Every dollar stays local. Every act of kindness multiplies. Every like, share, or conversation helps someone discover a lifeline—or become one.
