80 Years of Impact, A Future Built By You - Thank You!

Last week, our North Charleston offices came alive with celebration as supporters and staff honored 80 years of Trident United Way’s service to the community.

Guests explored the brand-new North Charleston Center for Strong Families, seeing firsthand how Family Coaches in this new space will help neighbors build stability and strength. In our “Legacy Room,” photos, articles and a digital timeline traced the decades of dedication that thousands of community members have made possible.

The evening featured inspiring words from President & CEO DJ Hampton, Board Chair Melanie Stith and longtime supporters Bob and Merrill Fei. A heartfelt tribute to AVP of Community Impact Cathy Easley, including reflections shared by Deb Campeau, was the highlight of the evening, celebrating Cathy’s remarkable 35 years of service with Trident United Way.

Here’s to 80 years of impact - and to the brighter future we’re building together!
