United, We Do More

United Way of Horry County brings our community together to break down barriers, meet urgent needs, and create opportunities so everyone can live their best possible life.

Youth Opportunity

Helping Every Child Succeed
From the first day of kindergarten to high school graduation, every child deserves the tools and support to reach their potential. Together with families, schools, and community partners, we’re creating pathways for children and youth to learn, achieve, and succeed.
Health

Healthy Community

Improving Health and Wellbeing for all
We’re working toward a future where behavioral health needs are recognized, validated, and supported. By partnering with local organizations, we expand access to nutritious food, quality healthcare, and essential services so every person has the chance to thrive.

Financial Security

Building Financial Stability and Strength
We envision a Horry County where every individual has the resources to build selfsufficiency. By supporting access to quality housing, career opportunities, and financial tools, we’re helping families move from surviving to thriving.

Community Resiliency

Creating a Stronger, More Resilient Community
Everyone deserves the security of knowing their basic needs will be met. Through collaboration, we work to ensure access to food, shelter, clothing, transportation, and healthcare — building a community that can respond to today’s challenges and prepare for tomorrow.

Hey Coastal Carolina

United to Read volunteer sign ups are now open!

Every first-grade classroom in Horry County will have a volunteer read to their class, meaning over 150 volunteers are needed for this much loved annual event! For the 2026 school year, volunteers will be reading A Bad Case of the Stripes by David Shannon. We chose this story because of its powerful and age-appropriate message about being confident in who you are, celebrating individuality, and not allowing the opinions or pressures of others to determine who you become 🩷💚🩵💛❤️

Visit unitedwayhorry.org/united-to-read/ to pick your classroom today 📚

Thank you to A&I Fire and Water Restoration for sponsoring this event year after year!

Our final site for today’s 26th Annual Day of Caring 2026 is Habitat for Humanity of Horry County, specifically their ReStore location in Myrtle Beach!

The ReStore helped us supply new ovens for both of our other sites this year so it truly was a collaborative effort. We were happy today to be able to have our volunteers spend some time sprucing things up a bit around their store that does so much to give back to our community 🫶 United is the Way! 💙
