Voices United Blog

Through our Voices United blog, you’ll learn how we use our superpowers — Connecting, Convening and Catalyzing — to solve problems faced every day by individuals and families across our region. We connecting all sectors of the community who share our goal of making southwestern Pennsylvania a thriving place. This includes businesses, individuals, nonprofits and government. We can do more together than any of us could ever do on our own. We solve problems by convening experts, including people affected by challenges, to figure out what’s needed beyond money so the communities we all love and belong to can thrive. We inspire others to give. We have nearly 100 years of expertise in community needs, so companies and individuals give to United Way because they know that their investments go farther when they do.
