This is what community support looks like! ❤️

Orrville Area United Way was proud to provide Stirrup Courage with a Summer Grant in 2026 to help fund their new outdoor riding fence.

Seeing these kids enjoying a safe space to ride, grow, and build confidence is exactly why we do what we do!

Thank you, Stirrup Courage, for the incredible work you're doing for local children and youth. 🐴❤️

Our Citizen Review Committee was hard at work last night for the first of two evenings of grant presentations!

These dedicated community volunteers play a vital role in how Orrville Area United Way invests your donations. They review grant applications, hear directly from organizations seeking funding, ask questions, and ultimately make funding recommendations to our Board of Directors.

It's a thoughtful, community-driven process that helps ensure your dollars are making a meaningful impact right here at home.

Thank you to our CRC volunteers for their time, dedication, and commitment to our community! ❤️

Here in our community, Orrville Area United Way helps make those books possible. ❤️

Tomorrow, September 25, join communities across Ohio and around the world for Give Like Dolly Day!

Happening this Friday..... Dolly Parton Day in Ohio 💫

We're joining Dolly Parton's foundation, the Dollywood Foundation, and encouraging you to join us in honoring Dolly’s generous heart and her lifelong commitment to children.

Did you know? Dolly Parton's Imagination Library of Ohio remains the largest statewide Imagination Library program in the U.S., serving the highest number of children compared to any other state -- over 432,000!

You can support Dolly's vision of putting more books into the hands of children by donating $9.25 to her program on 9 two 5 this Friday.

Your donation of $9.25 will cover the local cost of 7 Imagination Library books that will soon be mailed to children in Ohio.

Your generosity will help ensure one book a month will continue to arrive at no cost to any family in Ohio.

Please join us in honoring Dolly and her program, Dolly Parton's Imagination Library, this Friday, on 9 two 5 🦋❤️✨

Absolutely incredible!

Our staff set a goal of raising $4,000 for Orrville Area United Way and together, they reached it!

Orrville Area United Way has been an important partner of the Club, with their funding accounting for roughly 10% of our annual operating budget. But what we love about OAUW is that their impact reaches far beyond any one organization.

They work alongside local businesses to create accessible ways for employees to give back and those gifts are then invested right here in our community. This campaign was our staff’s opportunity to be part of that, and they showed up generously. It’s one more way we can invest back into a community that invests so much in us.

And if your workplace is looking for another way to give back locally, consider connecting with Orrville Area United Way to learn how your team can get involved. 💙💛
