Susquehanna Valley United Way’s 2024 Impact Report celebrates a year of collaboration and progress, showcasing how partnerships with nonprofits, businesses, and local leaders addressed critical regional challenges like housing, substance use prevention, and STEAM education. With tangible outcomes like over $550,000 in tax refunds for local families and the distribution of 2,315 doses of Narcan, the report illustrates the power of collective action.

Susquehanna Valley United Way has been chosen to oversee the distribution of $105,189 in federal funds under the Emergency Food and Shelter National Board Program again this year. These funds will supplement emergency food assistance and shelter programs in Northumberland, Union, Snyder, Columbia, and Montour Counties. The deadline for agency applications is Dec. 5th.

Susquehanna Valley United Valley has made significant strides this summer. Strategic planning, annual allocations, and collaborative meetings with partners have positioned them to deliver increased support and resources to our community.

I am deeply concerned about the challenges facing our Susquehanna Valley nonprofit organizations – and the individuals and families they serve. We must recognize the critical role nonprofits play in our community and take action to support them.
