A unique United Way partnership is helping Hibbing High School Career Academy (HHSCA) rebuild its healthcare pathway.

United Way of Northeastern Minnesota (UWNEMN) presented HHSCA students and staff with a $10,000 check, secured through Greater Twin Cities United Way (GTCUW)’s Building a Movement fund.

United Way of Northeastern Minnesota is starting 2025 fresh with a brand new look. We’re excited about our new logo – the brighter colors and more fluid shape feel more modern, more active, more “us.”

Organizations HAVE to evolve, or they won’t survive changing times and needs. Luckily, we aren’t just experts in our communities; we’re experts in adaptability. When the needs of the community have changed, we’ve always changed, too.

A big donation for the United Way of NE Minnesota on Thursday, with $10,000 from the Veterans Community Thrift Store in Hibbing.

Money will support the MAC-V house in Hibbing, which houses veterans who are transitioning out of homelessness. It’s the only one of its kind on the Range.

The Veterans Community Thrift Store also donated $10,000 in April last year, to help with the oral history project.

CHISHOLM - United Way of Northeastern Minnesota (UWNEMN) continues to make a profound impact on the region, touching thousands of lives each year.

In 2024 alone, an estimated 100,000 people were positively affected by UWNEMN’s programs and partners, with official figures to be finalized next month, said Erin Shay, Executive Director of UWNEMN.

Being able to make a difference in the lives of others is the reason they come to work everyday and continue to work when they are outside of the office, said Shay.
