Advocating for Lasting Change

At United Way of Greater New Bedford, we know that creating lasting change requires more than meeting immediate needs. It also means advocating for policies that strengthen our communities and address the systems that shape opportunity. This spring, UWGNB brought the voices and experiences of Greater New Bedford to both Capitol Hill and Beacon Hill.

The Couple That Gives Back Together

They say couples who volunteer together grow together, and that's certainly true for Adam and Shilah Tate. Adam, an employee at BayCoast Bank, and Shilah, an employee at another local financial institution, share more than careers in community-minded organizations - they share a passion for giving back through United Way of Greater New Bedford.
