Family Empowerment

At United Way Charlotte County, we believe strong families are the foundation of a thriving community. Through programs such as Charlotte County Reads, Kids Thrive, and the Parent Advisory Circle, we connect families with the tools, education, and support they need to thrive and succeed. By investing in learning, resilience, and connection, we help families today—and empower future generations to thrive.
