At United Way of Sumner County, events are more than just dates on a calendar—they’re opportunities to come together in support of something greater. Whether we’re raising funds, recognizing local changemakers, or spreading awareness about urgent community needs, each event is a chance to get involved and make a real difference. The events listed here represent our core opportunities to give back, get involved, and stand united for a stronger Sumner County.
United is the Way™ to community connection.
Community Impact Breakfast
The Community Impact Breakfast is a celebration honoring our partner agencies, donors, volunteers, and advocates who have helped improve lives in our community through involvement with our work at United Way of Sumner County. It is also an invitation to Sumner County leaders to learn about our efforts in the community and congratulate those who have made our work possible. Finally, it is an opportunity to hear United Way of Sumner County’s vision for Community Impact.
