CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR SPIRIT OF NC AWARD WINNERS! 
 

2022 Spirit of NC badge

 

The Spirit of North Carolina Award offers United Ways in North Carolina communities an opportunity to honor organizations and individuals who exemplify the “spirit” of their community. Winners meet specific standards of achievement and are nominated by their local United ways. United Way of North Carolina leads the award nomination and process and presents the award annually.

On March 1-3 2023, United Way of North Carolina recognized 74 Spirit of North Carolina Award winners, representing 17 local United Ways. These companies and organizations not only demonstrated excellence in their United Way campaign but are building a philanthropic culture community-wide.
