United Way of Coshocton County kicks off 2025-26 campaign

United Way of Coshocton County announced the official kickoff of its 2025-26 campaign.

This year's campaign highlights the continued commitment to creating lasting change through community-driven solutions in the areas of health, education and financial stability.

This marks the first campaign led by United Way’s new Executive Director Erin Slaughter, a lifelong Coshocton resident passionate about building stronger connections and improving the lives of local families.

“Our community is full of generosity, resilience and heart,” Slaughter said. “As we launch this campaign, I invite every resident, business and organization to join us in making a difference for the people who call Coshocton home.”

Over the coming months, United Way will work closely with local businesses, nonprofits and volunteers to raise funds that directly support critical programs such as early childhood education, food and housing assistance, and after-school and mental health programs. All donations stay local and are used to uplift families and individuals in need in Coshocton County.

Campaign events, workplace presentations and community-engagement efforts will take place throughout the fall. Local businesses interested in hosting a campaign or learning more are encouraged to contact the United Way office.

“Whether you give, advocate or volunteer, you are helping create a better future for everyone in Coshocton,” Slaughter said. “Together, we truly are united.”
