Dr. Kathryn Firmin-Sellers, President and CEO of United Way of Greater Charlotte, joined Good Morning LKN to discuss the organization’s 95-year legacy of strengthening communities and expanding economic opportunities for families across the Charlotte and Lake Norman region. Drawing on her experience with United Way since 2004, she highlights the growing challenges facing working families who earn above the poverty line but still struggle to afford housing, childcare, transportation, and other essentials.

She also shares how United Way partners with local nonprofits to address financial insecurity and introduces In Our United Era, a 95th anniversary celebration on November 19 featuring keynote speaker Majora Carter and a focus on neighborhood revitalization and community impact.
