A history of community impact:
United Way of the Mid-South has served the people of our community by improving the common good since 1923, generating and uniting community resources to impact people's lives by addressing critical health and human service needs. No other local volunteer-driven charitable organization helps more people in our area, in as many ways, as United Way of the Mid-South.


Creating results in a wide array of community concerns:
Every day, your support of United Way helps us fund programs that provide nurturing environments for children, job skills for people who want to work, health care for seniors who might otherwise go without, food and shelter for those facing tough times, safe havens from physical and psychological abuse, therapy for those coping with special challenges and so much more.

People and organizations uniting together make a tremendous contribution to the United Way every year.
The donations you make to United Way of the Mid-South stay in your local community.
The Board of Directors together with loaned executives, sponsored representatives, and agency liaisons play key roles in United Way.
Many United Way programs work with local nonprofit partners to create positive changes in people's lives.

Their expertise in targeted areas of care means your United Way support achieves life-impacting results for the greatest number of people possible.
United Way has developed several programs to address underserved needs in our Mid-South area. These creative initiatives are led by United Way staff and gain strength from a network of business and nonprofit partners working together to improve our community.
