Nonprofit Partners

United Way works in partnership with local non-profit organizations to improve lives and change community conditions in the areas of education, income, and health.

Non-profits in our community work hard everyday to make people’s lives better. United Way supports this work through calling attention to community needs and successes, mobilizing volunteers to address community needs, and generating and investing resources in programs that make a difference.

United Way is committed to helping the non-profit sector be as effective as possible. United Way has led the way in expecting organizations to define and measure their results, and provides technical assistance to organizations so that they can undertake this work. We also encourage information sharing among non-profits and continually look for ways to promote collaboration.

We recognize that no one organization working alone can create the kind of change that we need in our community. United Way is a member of several local collaborative groups that are focused on key community issues, such as early childhood, homelessness, and foreclosure. Working together, we can make our community a place in which children succeed in school, families are financially stable, and people have good health.
