About One United Lancaster
One United Lancaster is an independent, nonpartisan weekday nonprofit digital news outlet founded and sponsored by United Way of Lancaster County.
Launched in April 2020 as the community’s most comprehensive pandemic-centric information resource, One United Lancaster has evolved into the go-to source of news reporting on local nonprofit, government, and community driven causes. We are dedicated to reporting stories overlooked by larger regional outlets.
