Building on our knowledge, credibility and historic leadership of service, our United Way is helping to lead a community effort that will create both stronger and more comprehensive support systems in the priority areas of education, income and health – ensuring that:

 

- CHILDREN HAVE THE SUPPORT SYSTEMS AND SERVICES TO SUCCEED IN SCHOOL

- INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES ARE FINANCIALLY STABLE AND SELF-SUFFICIENT

- ALL HAVE ACCESS TO EMOTIONAL AND PHYSICAL CARE

AND THE ABILITY TO MAKE HEALTHY CHOICES 

We know that Large-Scale problems cannot be solved by a single organization.

Finding solutions to these challenges requires the coordinated effort of our entire community.

UWJWC provides the leadership as the convener and the catalyst to help our partners in our communities make lasting change to improve lives.
