Advancing the Common Good
United Way of Salt Lake and our community partners are working toward
the development of long-term solutions in the areas of education, income
and health as well as supporting basic needs services.
These are the building blocks for a good life—a quality education that
leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through
retirement and good health for a more productive life. Our vision is to
create long-lasting changes that prevent problems from happening in the
first place.
Our goals for the communities we serve are bold:
- Building a strong foundation of early learning from birth to age 8
- Helping people gain financial tools so their families can thrive
- Improving children's health and promoting healthy behaviors
- Meeting the basic needs of people in crisis
We invite you to be part of the change. Together, united, we can inspire hope and create opportunities for a better tomorrow. That’s what it means to LIVE UNITED.
