United Way of Lancaster County’s Centennial Celebration

100 Years of Impact, Innovation, & Inclusion in Lancaster County

In 2025, United Way of Lancaster County proudly marked 100 years of advancing education, economic mobility, and health while strengthening our community. Since 1925, we’ve partnered with individuals, organizations, and businesses to drive lasting change and support those in need. Our Centennial year was both a celebration of our history and a call to shape the future together.

October 25, 2025, United Way of Lancaster County hosted a memorable evening of reflection, recognition, and inspiration as we honored a century united. The celebration included special guest speakers, impact stories, music, and a look ahead at our next 100 years of impact.

We are your United Way — we have been giving, advocating, and volunteering in Lancaster for over 100 years.

"We were isolated during the Covid-19 Pandemic - disconnected from everything outside of our four walls. Now, as we start to rebuild relationships and patch the foundations of our community, our strength has been renewed. Community initiatives are experiencing a renaissance where their mission and vision are either being reinstated or reimagined altogether."
