Honoring Veterans. Strengthening Our Community.

A safe, stable place to call home can make all the difference. Yet for some veterans and their families, unexpected financial challenges, changes in employment, and rising housing costs can put that stability at risk.

At United Way of Forsyth County, we work alongside community partners to help veterans and families access housing, essential resources, and the support they need to move forward.

This Veterans Month, join us in honoring those who have served and strengthening the community we share.

Daniel's Story: A Place to Call Home

When reduced work hours made it difficult to afford rent, veteran Daniel Matthews found himself sleeping in his truck and occasionally staying in hotels.

After connecting with United Way's Supportive Services for Veteran Families program, Daniel received housing assistance and support to regain stability. Within weeks, he moved into a permanent apartment, with community partners helping furnish his new home.

His story reflects the difference that access to resources and community support can make.
