Geauga County

United Way of Greater Cleveland is the bridge from crisis to stability to possibility for working families in Geauga County. Through United Way 211, strategic investments in local partners, and employer partnerships like Bridges@Work, we help Geauga residents cover today’s needs while building toward lasting stability.

Geauga County has lower overall poverty rates than the state of Ohio, but a significant share of families are ALICE — Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed — earning above the poverty line but not enough to make ends meet. We’re here for both.
