Introducing the United Way Shelby County Centennial Park in Montevallo
In celebration of the 100th anniversary, United Way of Central Alabama (UWCA) is building a community park in each of the six counties we serve. You too can be a blessing to the community by pitching in with coworkers to help build one of these pleasing outdoor facilities. Each park will be customized to suit the community and site location but will consist of the same primary features.
