Connecting People and Possibilities

FOUNDED: 1922

HOW WE HELP: United Way of Dane County mobilizes the caring power of our community so all can thrive. From advancing health and education to strengthening livelihoods and local resilience, we connect people to possibilities. Our mission — to unite the community to achieve measurable results that change lives — is rooted in innovation and action. By collaborating with diverse partners, we deliver forward-thinking solutions and results that improve health, education, financial stability and local resilience.

THE IMPACT OF YOUR GIFT: When you give to United Way, 100% of your gift transforms lives through our Plan for Community Well-Being. Last year, your support reached 82,329 neighbors across Dane County. Over 29,000 individuals and families maintained stable housing, reduced family homelessness and secured full-time employment at $22-plus an hour. Eighteen thousand neighbors received mental health support, and access to health insurance and quality healthcare. Nearly 8,000 children advanced in early childhood education, literacy, math and critical thinking skills, college and career readiness and family engagement.
