Who We Are

WNCSource has been a catalyst for positive change across Henderson, Transylvania, Rutherford, and Polk Counties for over 55 years, beginning as Western Carolina Community Action in 1966. Beyond offering essential services like early childhood education, housing support, community transportation, and assistance for older adults, we’re dedicated to empowering our Western North Carolina neighbors toward economic independence and healthier living.

Each year, WNCSource contributes over $16 million to our local economy, made possible by the generous support of our community, private funding, and federal and state grants. 

Serving over 7,500 individuals annually, our commitment to building stronger communities and brighter futures is reflected in how we allocate our budget—over 90% of our funds go towards effective programs that improve lives and empower everyone to thrive.
