We identify the most pressing issues in Addison County and we bring together the people we think can solve them. United Way funds agencies that, working together, can address the nuances of complex problems like poverty, homelessness, lack of affordable high-quality childcare, domestic violence, isolation, substance use disorder, and a disengaged workforce. We find solutions to fill unmet needs. We deploy volunteers as the feet on the street, delivering hope to people in need. We raise funding through generous donors who understand that social change can’t happen without it.
Thanks to you and our network of nonprofit partners, we've made incredible strides, but there’s still vital work ahead. Your support is essential in transforming lives and making a tangible impact on those who need it most. The journey to a healthier, stronger Addison County cannot be traveled alone. Please give today; together, we can lead the way for a brighter future for everyone.

Almost five thousand Addison County children will begin a new school year this August. For some families, shopping for school supplies is a fun end-of-summer event. However, it proves to be a financial burden for too many families in Addison County. Help students who need extra support to begin the school year on the right foot.
