Susquehanna Valley United Way’s CEO, Adrienne Mael, has announced that she will step down from her role on January 31, 2025, after 10 years of dedicated service to the organization and the communities it serves.

The Susquehanna Valley United Way held its 2023-24 Campaign Celebration, where they recognized the many businesses, volunteers, and community members who made this year's campaign successful.

“I am still astounded by the outpouring of positive responses we received from our Funded Partners and the local community. Those who recognized the value United Way brings to our community and reached out to lend their support, allowing the United Way to continue our strong programming.”

Susquehanna Valley United Way welcomes new staff members and progresses towards its ambitious campaign goal of $550,000 goal aimed at bolstering community initiatives.

The Greater Susquehanna Valley and Columbia-Montour United Ways are now Susquehanna Valley United Way. The name was released at United Way’s merger celebration and campaign kick-off on Thursday night and follows a thorough and thoughtful process that begin in June of last year.

The boards of directors for the Greater Susquehanna Valley United Way (GSVUW) and the United Way of Columbia and Montour Counties (UWCMC) voted unanimously to approve the merger of the two agencies. The merger, effective September 1, follows extended discussions between both boards that began in July of last year.
