At United Way, we work to advance equitable communities where households are stable and children can thrive. #LiveUnited
About us
We mobilize the caring power of Detroit and Southeastern Michigan to improve communities and individual lives across Wayne, Oakland, Washtenaw, and Macomb counties in measurable and lasting ways. IN OUR REGION, NEARLY 40% OF HOUSEHOLDS STRUGGLE TO MEET THEIR BASIC NEEDS. Even before the COVID-19 pandemic hit Southeastern Michigan, families in our community were struggling. Now, the situation is dire. People are struggling to find jobs, or they’re working, but not making enough to provide for their families. Parents are forced to choose between feeding their children and paying the rent. Senior citizens have to go without prescriptions. Children struggle to keep up in school. College students have to go without health care. This is a problem in every city in our region — and the problem is growing. This affects your neighbors, coworkers, and friends. This is everyone’s problem. Without stable households, children will never be able to thrive. And if children aren’t thriving now, they won’t be prepared to build stable households in the future — or a stable community. Together, we can break the cycle. At United Way, we work to build communities where all households are stable and every child can thrive.

✨ When Two Become One for the Greater Good! ✨ A year ago today, we merged with the former United Way of Washtenaw County to strengthen our ability to assist families in need while working toward long-term solutions to some of our region's greatest challenges. We've since achieved incredible milestones, from having a record-breaking turnout at our 16th annual Power of the Purse to expanding our Racial Equity Fund, investing $225,000 into local BIPOC-led organizations. Thank you to everyone who has stood by us on this journey. Together, we are a beacon of hope, support and transformation 🫶 Read the full story of our impact here: https://lnkd.in/eZu3siGY . . . #1YearAnniversary #UnitedWaySEM #BetterTogether #Celebrating1YearTogether
