Highlanders Society

History has shown that everything is cyclical. In ages past, neighbor took care of neighbor because life’s rule was “together we stand, divided we fall.”

Through the years, however, people turned more and more to government to take care of social ills. In this age of businesses downsizing, government now is requiring communities to take more responsibility for taking care of their own. We have come full circle.

Over the past years, an evergrowing group of individuals has seen the needs of those in Toombs, Montgomery and Wheeler Counties and have shown their caring attitude through membership in the Highlander Society of the United Way of Toombs-Montgomery-Wheeler Counties.

The Highlander Society, named for the group of settlers from the highlands of Scotland who, banned their homeland, found a refuge in the wilderness of Georgia in the 1700s and carved out a home, is the embodiment of one of the most  valuable traditions of our community, that of people caring for people.

This tradition has not developed by chance, but by the dedication and efforts of concerned leaders who have foreseen the needs of this community and, in turn, provided the direction and resources to meet these needs long before government deemed it “fashionable.”

In joining the Highlander Society, you will be declaring a sincere interest in our community by making a significant personal investment. It is through such a firm commitment to the United Way and its mission of human caring that we assume the leadership roles vital to helping our community’s health and social service needs.

The return on your investment will be significant – a community resilient to change and responsive to new challenges.

The Highlander Society, with its various levels of commitment, represents an opportunity for you to follow in the proud tradition of these great leaders.

You are cordially invited to join this outstanding group of caring citizens at the level of your choice: Alexis de Tocqueville Society, Highlands Level, Clan Chiefs Level, Bagpipers Level, Brave Heart Level, Coat of Arms Level, Heather Level or Tartan Level.
