Improving the Lives of Many Begins By Improving One

For 86 years, we’ve focused on programs that improve lives of those around us – but we can’t do it without your help. When you donate to Valley of the Sun United Way, you’re helping to change the lives of individuals and families in our community in countless ways.

10 Reasons to invest in the work of United Way
What Your Dollars Can Do

We improve lives by investing your dollars in our work and in the work of health and human service agencies that share our goals. Your investment makes you a part of a coordinated, community-wide effort that creates lasting community changes right here, where you live and work.  In addition, your contribution is leveraged and combined with others then strategically invested in results-driven programs and initiatives.

It takes coordination and an entire network of programs to keep our communities strong – and that’s what United Way provides. An investment in the work of Valley of the Sun United Way allows you to tackle multiple social issues with one single contribution. Valley of the Sun United Way ensures that a strong network of programs is available to help many people in need.
