About
For more than 60 years, the United Way Centraide SDG has strived to break down barriers, create opportunities, and improve lives in our region. We bring people together and build connections. One organization, business or government alone cannot solve the complex social issues that are currently challenging our community: poverty, health, hunger, housing, and homelessness. All of these are deeply layered and connected.
Our aim is to understand how our local non-profits, levels of government, businesses and community members can come together to find innovative solutions that prioritize the humanity and dignity of everyone living in our communities.
Our Impact
Housing, homelessness, poverty, food insecurity, and mental health are deeply connected—and deeply complex. None of them exist in isolation, and none can be solved without understanding the root causes, the systems at play, and the real impact on people’s lives.
That’s where the United Way Centraide SDG comes in.
We don’t focus on a single issue—we look at the whole picture. We listen to our communities, identify the gaps, and invest in programs that meet urgent needs today while building pathways towards an equitable future where everyone has access to the resources they need to thrive. We invest in prevention.
We respond to the now through programs focused on intervention and meeting people where they are. And we conduct research and spread awareness on key issues to build a strategic vision that aims shape a better future for everyone.
