UNITED WAY OF CENTRAL AND NORTHEASTERN CONNECTICUT'S
Centennial Gala
On December 14, 2024, United Way of Central and Northeastern Connecticut celebrated its Centennial milestone
with hundreds of philanthropists, community leaders, corporate leaders and dignitaries. As we reflected on
100 years of service and the remarkable impact we have made together, we also looked forward toward
a brighter future for the 860 region. Thanks to the generosity of our supporters, together we raised
$500,000 for bold initiatives that will help close gaps in child literacy, wages, housing and life
expectancy so everyone succeeds. Together, we are United to End Poverty.
