Guiding Community Resources

We raise money to ensure all children have books and supplies they need to learn, that all adults have the ability to get a job that supports them and their families, and that everyone has access to basic healthcare. But we do more than fundraise; we build win-win partnerships by making it easier for people to get involved in supporting our goals for Lancaster County. 

We bring organizations together to achieve a shared goal. But we do more than collaborate; we use the collective impact model to create intentional community partnerships and initiatives that combine the best resources and expertise in our County to help people move from dependency to self-sufficiency. Collective impact requires partners that are open to innovation, willing to change how they operate, and are held accountable for results.

"For nearly one hundred years, generations of Lancastrians have supported United Way through a workplace campaign at their employer. Giving back to help neighbors, friends and family is easy through a payroll deduction pledge and our online giving platform streamlines the process for everyone. We are so grateful for the hundreds of local businesses and organizations that conduct workplace giving campaigns each year. From small businesses to large corporations, employee gifts and corporate donations make a significant impact on tens of thousands of people who need our help."
