Diversity Policy

The United Way of York County, SC, strives to be a model of diversity and inclusion.  Our Board of Directors, staff and volunteers reflect the many faces, cultures, and walks of life that proudly makes up our world.

We respect, value and celebrate the unique attributes, characteristics, and perspectives that make each person who they are.  We also believe that bringing diverse individuals together allows us to collectively and more effectively address the issues that face our communities.  It is our aim, therefore, that our partners, strategies, and investments reflect these core values.

We take the broadest possible view of diversity, going beyond visible differences to affirm the essence of all individuals including the realities, background, experiences, skills, and perspectives that make each person who they are.  Engaging the power of diverse talent and partners results in innovative solutions and the community ownership necessary to address complex community issues.

Diversity and inclusion are at the heart of what it means to LIVE UNITED.
