As a coalition of charitable organizations committed to improving the community, United Way of the Piedmont likes to make things happen.
When group learned that local non-profits were using old computers and office equipment, or even going without, so that more money could be spent fulfilling their mission of helping others, they decided to do something about it.
On behalf of charitable organizations in Cherokee and Union Counties, United Way submitted a grant to the Timken Foundation, requesting money for technology, an often-forgotten area at non-profit organizations.
Timken responded to the appeal with a grant for $75,000 as part of the company’s philosophy of corporate philanthropy.
