OUR MISSION
Our mission is to develop resources and partnerships that make a measurable difference in people’s lives.
We want to fight for the education, health, and financial stability of every person in every community.
Everyone deserves the opportunity to be healthy, to learn, and to live a quality life. Our society has an obligation to work together to remove the barriers that divide and oppress.
United Way funded programs help children learn and families thrive, build self-sufficiency and independence, create stronger and safer neighborhoods, and improve the health of our communities.
