About Community Unlimited

Local roots. Lasting commitment.

Community Unlimited has served children, families, and communities since 1999.

Our history

Established September 25, 1999

Community Unlimited was established to improve the quality of life across Union City, Burlington, and Sherwood.

Since then, CU has expanded into additional communities while continuing to focus on community development, local partnerships, and youth education.

Community Unlimited operates from a historic industrial arts building constructed in 1949 at the corner of Park and Ellen Streets in Union City. Today, CU is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit serving families across multiple communities through GSRP, summer programming, family support, and collaborative community initiatives.
