A huge thank you to our community partner, United Community, for volunteering their time and learning more about our mission last week! Volunteers got a behind-the-scenes tour, helped out in our warehouse, and heard firsthand from people who've transformed their lives through Goodwill. Thank you, United Community Bank for spending the day with us and helping extend #goodwilltoall! Our work is made possible in part by the amazing support from community partners. If your business or organization is interested in volunteering with Goodwill, please reach out to us at [email protected].

Volunteering as a team has wonderful benefits for teams, individuals and the community. Choosing an activity that aligns well with the company, the team, and the community is important. 📈As a company, United Community Bank measures our success not just by our financial performance, but also by the positive impact we make in our local communities. 4️⃣To focus our community development and engagement efforts, we established four pillars based on employee survey results, representing important issues to our team. These pillars help us deliver on our mission to improve the financial health of the local communities we serve. Our four pillars are economic empowerment, artistic expression, housing strategies and youth development. 💙A team from United Community Bank had the opportunity to volunteer with Goodwill Industries of Upstate/Midlands South Carolina and tour their donation center. We were inspired by the work they are doing to help our neighbors with economic mobility! #banking #bankingindustry #togetherforgood
