100th Year Anniversary

A Letter from our Executive Director

This year 2023, marks the 100-year anniversary of the Tri-County United Way. We have been responding to the most pressing needs of our community now for a century. While the needs over the years have changed, our mission has remained the same- to improve the lives of the residents of Warren, Washington, and Northern Saratoga Counties and positively impact the community.

In celebration of this momentous occasion, we have two events planned. A fun-for-all-ages virtual scavenger hunt with an after party in the city park on May 20th and a more formal event in October, celebrating our donors, companies, agencies, and volunteers that have supported us year after year. Profits from both these events will benefit the agencies and programs of the Tri-County United Way.

I’d like to thank the generous supporters and volunteers that have made the Tri-County United Way a major success to all that call this region home. Your consistent support has been the backbone of our success. For generations, this community has fought for the betterment of our friends and neighbors in the areas of health, education, and financial stability, and we will continue to do so. Thank you all for your time, kindness and sponsorship. I hope you will join us in our celebration.

Warmest Regards,
Kristin Chlopecki
Executive Director
