Funding

We believe in comprehensive solutions to
combat our region’s most pressing issues.

United Way is one of the largest nonprofit funding organizations in the region. We are currently investing in over 70 programs at more than 50 local nonprofit agencies in communities throughout our service area. We use our focus area framework to guide funding decisions and ensure dollars go to organizations and programs working in each of our three key areas. For a list of funded programs, click here.

Community Volunteers

United Way relies on volunteers to support the funding process. The Community Impact Committee is staffed by a group of dedicated volunteers.

Support our Community Investments

Funding is made possible through generous gifts from donors who give through workplace campaigns or make individual gifts.
