Emergency Food Assistance

Due to the government shutdown, 300,000 households did not get SNAP food assistance on Nov. 3. Legal appeals may delay benefits, causing widespread food insecurity. Give today to support emergency food assistance and our 211 contact center, which has seen dramatic upticks in calls for food. Click here to give.

Which of our three pillars – Meeting Basic Needs, Moving to Financial Stability and Building for Success in School and Life – resonates most and why?

“I feel most aligned with Building for Success in School and Life.  I have a passion for education and understand the tremendous impact that it can have on individuals and society as a whole. A good education prepares you to find a good job that can sustain you and your family and allows you to lead a life that hopefully is fulfilling and not one where you just “get by”- or worse, one in which you can’t get by.  United Way supports our communities’ efforts to see that everyone has a chance to get a good education and go on to lead a successful and productive life.”
