About Us

Mobilizing the Caring Power of Our Community

Valley of the Sun United Way is the largest nonprofit funder of health and human services in Maricopa County as published on December 4, 2012, in the Arizona Republic. Since 1925, we have been building caring communities where individuals and families are successful, stable and secure. Our average annual investment in the community over the past few years exceeds $60 million, and every dollar donated in Maricopa County, stays in Maricopa County.

With 86 years of experience we truly understand the challenges facing vulnerable individuals and families in our community. We partner with the right people, organizations and businesses that bring the passion, expertise and resources needed to get things done.
 
With support from donors, volunteers and community experts, Valley of the Sun United Way professionals find innovative solutions to address short-term individual needs and create long-term community results. We improve lives by investing your dollars in our work and in the work of health and human service agencies that share our goals.
