Trident United Way
Trident United Way is committed to creating measurable community transformation through collective impact in education, financial stability, and health. We work to make real, long-lasting change through collective impact, a systematic approach in which many partners agree in advance on how they will approach the issue at hand and how they will determine success. These collaborations require a backbone organization to manage the partnership and ensure communication among the partners. Trident United Way often plays that backbone role.
