Albemarle Area United Way: Strengthening Communities Across Northeastern North Carolina
The Albemarle Area United Way is a trusted nonprofit organization dedicated to enhancing the quality of life across nine counties in Northeastern North Carolina: Bertie, Camden, Chowan, Currituck, Dare, Gates, Hertford, Pasquotank, and Perquimans.

Through strategic partnerships with over 20 local agencies— including the Food Bank of the Albemarle, Albemarle Hopeline, Girl Scouts, 4-H, and the YMCA—we support vital programs that address food insecurity, youth development, domestic violence prevention, and community wellness.

We are proud to introduce the Community Care Collaborative, a targeted initiative designed to provide emergency assistance to individuals and families experiencing temporary crises in Camden, Pasquotank, and Perquimans counties.

At Albemarle Area United Way, we believe in the power of collaboration to create lasting impact. Join us in building stronger, healthier communities throughout Northeastern North Carolina.

While many of us are counting down the 18 days until Thanksgiving and the 47 days until Christmas, some of our neighbors are counting something very different.
They're counting the 8 hours until dinner, wondering how they'll stretch what's left in the pantry to feed their children. They're counting the 3 days until their heat is shut off, unsure how they'll keep their family warm.
The holiday season is a time of gratitude, celebration, and giving. But for many families in our community, it can also be a time of uncertainty and worry.
Your donation to the Albemarle Area United Way helps provide food, utility assistance, emergency support, and hope to local families when they need it most. Together, we can ease the burden and remind our neighbors that they are not facing these challenges alone.
As you count down to the holidays, consider making a difference in someone else's countdown.

Let's Get Connected! That was the theme of our Volunteer Summit last week when local nonprofits gathered to listen to Hilary Fulp, VP of The Curtis Group, and Lorri Barrett, Outreach Director of Albemarle Area United Way, to learn about the new volunteer portal. Visit volunteer.aaunitedway.org to check it out.

Who doesn't enjoy a sweet treat now and then? Whether you're a fan of chocolate, gummies, hard candies, or those mysterious candies that somehow show up in the bottom of every purse, National Candy Day is a great reminder that a little sweetness can go a long way.

At the Albemarle Area United Way, we see that same sweetness in our community every day. It shows up in a volunteer giving their time, a donor making a contribution, a partner agency providing support, or a neighbor offering a helping hand. Small acts of kindness can make life a little sweeter for someone who needs it.

If our community were a candy bowl, it would be filled with generosity, compassion, and hope. Make a contribution and help us to fill our "candy" bowl today!

When did you last make a sandwich?
Today on national sandwich day, think about your favorite sandwich for a moment. It isn't just one ingredient that makes it special. It's the layers working together: the bread, the meat, the cheese, the veggies, and maybe a little extra something that brings it all together.
Communities are a lot like sandwiches.
At the Albemarle Area United Way, we know our community is built with layers of caring people, volunteers, partner agencies, donors, and advocates. Each layer plays an important role, and together they create something stronger, more supportive, and more nourishing for our neighbors in need. So, make a sandwich, and think about how you can become a layer for our community.

There’s something special about fall. As leaves drift gently from the trees, we're reminded that change is a natural part of life. Yet even as seasons change, one thing remains constant: the power of neighbors helping neighbors.
At the Albemarle Area United Way, we are grateful for the caring individuals, volunteers, and donors who help strengthen our community every day. Just like each colorful leaf adds beauty to the season, every act of kindness adds hope and support to someone in need.
This November, take a moment to appreciate the blessings around you and consider how you can make a difference for someone else. Together, we can create a community where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
What are you most grateful for this fall? Share with us in the comments!

We hope you can join us to celebrate these amazing individuals!

We've checked the community, and the scariest things this Halloween aren't ghosts, goblins, or witches...

The good news? We have a powerful spell to fight those scary situations:
Community. Compassion. Generosity.
When you support Albemarle Area United Way, you're helping turn frightening situations into stories of hope. No broomsticks, crystal balls, or magic wands required!
This Halloween, let's make a difference that's more treat than trick.
