To unite the community and mobilize resources so that every child, individual, and family can thrive.
United way's largest program service is distributing funds to vetted community partner agencies that address the region's most critical health, education, and financial stability needs. Through a rigorous community investment and evaluation process, united way ensures donor contributions are directed to high-impact organizations. It continuously assesses community needs, convenes cross-sector leaders to develop collaborative strategies, and provides data-driven insights on the alice (asset limited, income constrained, employed) population to inform decision-making and advocacy. Additionally, united way strengthens the nonprofit sector by connecting volunteers with community partners to build organizational capacity and by facilitating meaningful corporate social responsibility and employee engagement opportunities that expand community impact beyond financial contributions.
