Our Priorities
United Way is improving lives locally by moving people from poverty to possibility, helping kids be all they can be, and building strong and healthy communities.
Our Impact
Our region is a great place to live. But growing gaps between rich and poor are creating a divide within our communities. Every day, people in our communities struggle to build better lives for themselves and their families.
These challenges are fueled by serious social and economic barriers including poverty, mental illness and social isolation, among others, making it remarkably difficult to get ahead.

TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE THEM
