In this episode of Keeping It Real with Sharon, I sit down with Andy Gail, CEO of United Way of Northern Shenandoah Valley, for an inspiring conversation about the power of collaboration and community care.
Andy shares the heart behind the United Way’s mission, walking us through the many programs they support and the grants they offer to help strengthen our region. We talk about how local nonprofits don’t work in silos, but instead come together through the United Way to create real, lasting impact for individuals and families across our community.
What makes this conversation especially meaningful is Andy’s long-standing commitment to the Northern Shenandoah Valley. Long before stepping into his role as CEO, he carried a deep passion for service and truly understands that when organizations work together, everyone benefits.
This episode is a reminder that strong communities aren’t built alone, they’re built through partnership, compassion, and people who genuinely care. A must-listen for anyone who loves this area and wants to better understand how collaboration is shaping a brighter future for all.
