As the region continues to face ongoing challenges, United Way of Greater St. Louis is working to help individuals and families. United Way unites people, resources, and funding to help build strong and resilient communities that help people live here and thrive. Their impact on the community includes equipping over 150 local nonprofits with vital funding and training resources, operating the largest volunteer center in the region, and connecting local neighbors to providers of services through their 211 referral line.
Each year, United Way makes a difference in the lives of over 1 million people in Missouri and Illinois — that’s 1 in 3 people across 16 counties supported by programs, services, and initiatives that help meet their immediate and long-term needs. The organization does this by helping the region through five impact areas — basic needs, youth and early childhood success, financial mobility, health and well-being, and community stability and crisis response.
United Way helps people get access to resources and support needed to live here and thrive.
From providing food and clothing to offering education, job training, and counseling, United Way is here to help and ensure individuals and families have the tools and support they need today and in the future.
These efforts to overcome crises as well as everyday challenges is how the United Way strives to help their neighbors.
