Because of you, local lives will be brighter this holiday season.
Another year has shown us that even when we start to feel a sense of normalcy, our region’s most vulnerable people will be picking up the pieces for a long time. Caregiver burnout, job instability, anxiety, loneliness—the added pressures of life during a pandemic are still showing up in big ways.
At United Way, our team is leading the charge in tackling the root causes of the most pressing local issues. And donors like you have shown us that the spirit of giving is still alive, despite the challenges that still persist.
Know that your gift will be put to work right here where you live. We are so grateful for your support.
Thanks to our generous friends at Scotiabank, your donation will be matched, going twice as far to help the most vulnerable people in our communities.
