CHANGING LIVES LOCALLY
At United Way of Northern BC, we strive to improve communities in Northern BC by connecting resources to local needs and have the best possible support for those in need.
Throughout the year, as we transitioned out of the pandemic into recovery mode, United Way of Northern BC remained focused on and committed to doing what we do best: Bringing together agencies, corporations, donors, volunteers, and Governments for the common purpose of working together to improve the lives of local people.
