United Way ofGreater Kingsport
Whenever work or pleasure whisk us away
from this area, we recall how glad we are to
call the Kingsport community home. From the
natural beauty of the area to the giving spirit of
its people, we feel a great sense of appreciation
for our community and for our fellow citizens.
Building upon a strong legacy, together we are
creating a vibrant future for our community.
And while we each travel down the road to
tomorrow together, our journeys are unique.
That’s where United Way comes in.
United Way is in the business of improving
lives. Like a GPS on life’s highway, United Way
is “Giving People Support” from beginning to
end of the many journeys in our community.
Together with citizens and other organizations
United Way seeks to understand and address
our community’s most critical immediate
needs and set a path to create positive, lasting
change. When you get involved, you help shape
a brighter future for us all!
So, thank you! Thank you for caring. Thank you
for your commitment to United Way and this
community. Thank you for taking the road that
leads to improved lives.
Community Initiatives Make an Impact
United Way of Greater Kingsport (UWGK) is engaged in supporting community impact
initiatives that target specific identified needs. Initiatives align with at least one measurable
outcome from one of four focus areas: Helping Children and Youth Succeed, Supporting
Aging with Choices, Promoting Self-Sufficiency, and Ensuring Safety and Stability. Evaluated
by experienced community volunteers, initiatives are screened for their ability to bring about
positive, sustainable change to the underlying cause of a problem.
In 2010, the Helping Children and Youth Succeed Vision Council helped facilitate a grant
award to the Kingsport City Schools’ Family Resource Center. Currently, the Family Resource
Center connects children and youth who need help, to community based services that
support behavioral, social, physical and emotional health and development. The program
strives to impact young people’s lives positively by eliminating common barriers to academic
achievement, meeting basic needs and making sure all children have equal opportunities to
succeed. With the UWGK
grant funds, the Family
Resource Center was able
to employ two additional
part-time staff who will
work to further reduce
expulsions, suspensions,
and referrals to
alternative school by 3%
and increase daily school
attendance by 5%.
The Harvest of Hope: Growing with Kingsport community garden project sprouted from the
efforts of the UWGK’s Safety and Stability Vision Council and their Food Security Initiative
subcommittee. With a goal to combat hunger in Kingsport, community partners including
UWGK, First Presbyterian Church, AARP, the City of the Kingsport and the Master Gardens
of Northeast Tennessee have collaborated to develop 27 raised beds, some of which are
handicap accessible and child-friendly. The harvest will be utilized by community residents
and will benefit the hungry, including clients of Interfaith Hospitality Network and the
Salvation Army. The garden provides healthy food for the homeless as well as a place of
healing and hope.
Future vision council initiatives include work to identify community gaps and opportunities
for the aging population, developing information and referral networks, individual case
management and life coaching, as well as examining adult dental care needs.
Comments from Board President/Campaign Chair
Etta Clark2011 President,
Board of Directors
Monty McLaurin2011 Campaign Chair
“[The Harvest of Hope Garden Project] is a
community effort…the people [in the garden]
include families, seniors, organizations that feed
the homeless, such as Hope Haven and Salvation
Army. We also have individuals providing their
food [in the garden] for the hungry.”
— Larry Maston, Master Gardener
of Northeast Tennessee

“I feel really comfortable leaving my daughter
at Kingsport Child Development Center. It
gives me a sense of relief to be able to go to
school and go to work and know that she
is going to be comfortable where she is at. I
don’t have to worry about her. It’s made it
a lot easier to get through school…knowing
that she is all right while I am not there,
knowing that she has someone there for her,
has really been a big help. I am thankful for
United Way being there to provide funding for
Kingsport Child Development Center because
it helps me that they are income-based since I
work part-time and go to school.”
