United Way's Impact

United Way mobilizes communities to action so all can thrive. We help neighbors strengthen their resilience by advancing health, youth opportunities and financial security.

United Way seeks to improve lives around the world to advance the common good. True to our founding spirit, whenever there is a need in our communities, United Way is there. We bring a comprehensive approach to every challenge, actively listening and responding to local needs. Our reach across tens of thousands of communities means we can share innovations and scale impact to improve lives around the world.

From strengthening local resilience to advancing health, youth opportunity, and financial security, we’re working towards a future where every person in every community can reach their full potential.

Healthy Community

We improve access to nutritious food and quality health education and services, so people have the resources they need to lead healthy lives.

Financial Security

We connect people to education, tools, and job training so they have financial freedom, peace of mind--and can build a stronger future for their children.

Youth Opportunity

We create pathways for young people to reach their goals, from early childhood education to college and career success.

Disaster Relief 

We help communities prepare for, prevent, and respond to challenges, from crisis support to disaster relief. 

We live where we serve, working with local leaders and residents. Together, we're using local data and local insights to create solutions tailor-made to that community's challenges. It's all rooted in United Way values and the strategies we know work, but we don't believe in one-size-fits-all solutions.
