United Way of Dane County Investment Process
At United Way of Dane County, we’re proud to invest in and partner with programs that focus time and energy on helping local families and individuals overcome barriers and access the building blocks of well-being – a quality education, a family-supporting job and health supports. Because we know that when we connect the dots across these areas, families get what they need to succeed in school, work and life.
