United Way of Southwest Virginia is a regional nonprofit based in Abingdon, Virginia, serving 21 localities in Southwest Virginia, including the New River Valley. For more than 60 years, it has shifted from a primary fundraising role to a prevention-focused approach that addresses root causes and aims for a stronger return on community investment. It coordinates programs and services by drawing on regional assets and leading coalitions that bring together government, nonprofits, and communities to create collective impact. The organization maintains a professional staff of about forty, supplemented by involvement from experts, leaders, neighborhoods, and governments across partisan and income lines. It has earned recognition from national entities such as the Appalachian Regional Commission and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, and was an inaugural recipient of the Virginia Governor’s Award for Excellence and Innovation in Education in 2017. In 2026, United Way of Southwest Virginia expanded its Flourish Maternal and Infant Health and Well-Being Project to the New River Valley, signaling ongoing regional growth.
