When we Live United and support United Way, we create results in education, finances and health that strengthen families and promote self-sufficiency for individuals.
Strong families
United Way is helping families confront and overcome serious problems that can break them apart and put children at a disadvantage in school - and in life. Your support of United Way results in:
> Reductions in family violence and/or abuse
> Increased child safety
> More parents and caregivers actively involved in children’s lives and schools
> More basic family needs being met
> Lower rates of family disruption and higher rates of family reunification
Self-sufficient individuals
United Way programs and initiatives focus on making people more independent and more able to contribute to society by working to:
> Improve physical well-being and stability of living conditions
> Improve access to physical and mental health care
> Increase levels of technical, job and educational skills
> Improve literacy, job placement and average wage earnings
> Increase savings and asset-building skills and reducing debt
