In case you missed it, Greenville was recently ranked No. 4 on the U.S. News and World Report’s list of the Best Places to Live in the U.S.
Additionally, our region is expected to welcome 220,000 new residents by 2040. But as Greenville grows, so does the level of need.
A recent study by United Way highlighted some of the financial struggles in our community. The “ALICE: Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed” report found that:
- 39% of households in Greenville County struggle to make ends meet
- 29% earn more than the Federal Poverty Level, but still can’t afford basic necessities
United Way’s “How We Win” strategy addresses these challenges through education, housing, childcare, and transportation, but solving them will require a united effort from everyone. This year, United Way of Greenville County would love your support.
