United Way of Greenville County is flipping the script on poverty and engaging local employers, business leaders, professionals, and community members to explore their role in perpetuating poverty within our community. Together, we seek to identify actionable decisions that can be made daily to transform Greenville County into a place where all people have access to the opportunities to achieve their full potential.
“Poverty, By Greenville” is a thought-provoking dialogue featuring Pulitzer Prize winner and MacArthur Genius grant recipient Matthew Desmond. Explore Desmond’s groundbreaking research on the enduring complexities of poverty in our communities and discover bold strategies for addressing them head-on. This main event hosted at the Peace Center will be limited to 2,000 attendees and feature an exclusive opportunity for a VIP Book Signing. The format will feature a dynamic 40-minute presentation followed by a 25-minute interactive Q&A session.
