About Us

We're a small, self-funded, federally recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit that was formed from the realization that there's always something each of us can do to help our local community of Quincy, Massachusetts. In fact, we believe everyone can do something good for their local community. That said, we're here to share some of our time, our energy, our sense of care and compassion, and our funding where needed. To do this, we're gradually building partnerships with the Quincy Public Schools (QPS) system and local 501(c)(3) nonprofits to achieve incremental improvements that deliver some measurable impact.

 

One Unified Team was founded by Ed Lee who has lived in the city of Quincy since 1991. After a successful 21-year career in technology operations, corporate audit, and cyber risk management at Fidelity Investments, Ed retired from corporate life in 2021 thanks in part to the company's generous Voluntary Buyout Opportunity (VBO). He launched One Unified Team, Inc. in Q1 2024 to support local nonprofits in the "most flexible way" possible. In Q2 2024, the organization received its 501(c)(3) status from the IRS.

We're a federally recognized 501(c)(3) Private Nonoperating Foundation. We're also registered with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a Nonprofit Corporation. We're completely self-funded, and as such, we DO NOT request or accept donations from others.
