United Way of Chittenden County motivates the whole community to contribute to its annual Community Campaign which is supported by local workplace campaigns and individual donors. The Campaign supports strategic initiatives, programs, volunteer efforts and advocacy work that improve education, income and health.
United Way of Chittenden County unites our whole community to solve complex problems and harness the power of people to create a stronger Chittenden County. United Way convenes advocates, organizations and institutions to address the community's most pressing issues, focusing on the building blocks of a vibrant community: education, income and health. The problems facing our community are complex; they are issues that no single organization or individual alone can solve – real change is possible when nonprofit, public and private sectors work together. United Way has the networks, partnerships and strategic initiatives to improve the lives of our family, friends and neighbors.
