Greenville Business Magazine 2009 December issue : Page 21››in the lead Ted Hendry, President of United Way of Greenville County, on Why local nonprofits are important to the Greenville business community “U nited Way and other local nonprofits provide an opportunity for corporate citizens to express their caring and compassion for those who need help. From United Way’s perspective, it’s a mutually beneficial partner- ship. We provide a way for businesses to connect and engage with the larger community. These connections create an enhanced sense of community with a shared vision for the future. Not only is that just good business, but the result is a stronger, more united effort toward achieving our long-term community goals. If United Way can accomplish our goals of ensuring all children start school ready to succeed, all youth graduate from high school and increasing financial stability for individuals and families,we know businesses will benefit because we will have created a workforce that is better prepared to meet their current employment needs and help attract future economic development.■ ” DECEMBER 2009 | GREENVILLE BUSINESS MAGAZINE 21 PHOTOGRAPH BY COMMERCIAL IMAGING >>in the leadTed Hendry, President of United Way of Greenville County, on Publication List |
