Get Involved
There are many opportunities to share your time, talent, and treasure with United Way. From participating in The Great Charity Auction to, as seen here, joining community members on a Caravan of Caring to see United Way funding in action. Some go above and beyond in a given year. Join us in recognizing sixteen superheroes who made a difference in our most-recently completed campaign.
