OUR WORK

Everyone deserves opportunities to have a good life: a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health.

That’s why United Way of Greater Cleveland's board of directors approved the implementation of a heavily researched and well-reasoned new community investment strategy that was more than six years in the making. This new investment strategy focuses on some of our community's most pressing health and human service issues.

105 current partner agencies and 21 newly funded agencies will implement more than 200 health and human service programs supported by United Way, working to advance the common good in our community and create a better life for all. 

Advancing the common good is less about helping one person at a time and more about changing systems to help all of us. We are all connected and interdependent. We all win when a child succeeds in school, when families are financially stable, when people are healthy.

United Way’s goal is to create long-lasting changes by addressing the underlying causes of these problems. It takes everyone in the community working together to create a brighter future.

Give. Advocate. Volunteer. That’s what it means to LIVE UNITED.
