After nearly nine years with United Way Peterborough & District, we’re saying goodbye (but not really goodbye) to Rhonda Gilchrist as she begins an exciting new chapter as Executive Director of The Mount Community Centre. Rhonda has been a steady hand, a fierce advocate, a problem solver, and a champion for this community in every sense of the word.

For those of us lucky enough to work alongside her, we’ll miss her wisdom, her humour, the stories of her beloved pets, her unwavering dedication, and her ability to somehow make even the most challenging days feel manageable.

While we’re sad to see her go, we couldn’t be happier to see her step into a role that aligns so perfectly with her passion for building a stronger, more connected community.

Thank you, Rhonda, for everything you’ve given to United Way, to our team, and to Peterborough. We can’t wait to see all the incredible things you’ll accomplish next. Please join us in congratulating Rhonda!

🍎 THEY’RE BACK! 🍎

A great educator can change the course of a life.

They stay after class. They cheer students on. They build confidence, spark curiosity, and help young people discover what they’re capable of.

This year, say “thank you” in a way that gives back.

Our Thank an Educator certificates are back and available now! When you make a $25 donation to United Way Peterborough & District’s Backpacks for Success program, we’ll send a personalized digital certificate (you get to choose from 4 options) for an educator of your choice, letting them know they’ve been honoured in recognition of the difference they’ve made in local students lives.

It’s a meaningful way to celebrate a teacher, EA, principal, ECE, coach, or mentor while helping local students head back to school with the supplies they need to succeed.

✨ Honour an educator
🎒 Support local students
❤️ Create a lasting impact

Because the people who help students succeed deserve to be celebrated.

🌸 It’s time to break the stigma.

Menstrual health matters and access to products and education should never be a barrier.

Through the Period Promise campaign, United Way Peterborough & District is working to address period poverty in our communities.

On Menstrual Hygiene Day, we call for dignity, access, and inclusion for all.
