About the United Way

United Way of Washington County

United Way of Washington County engages, convenes, and mobilizes community resources to address root causes of local health and human service needs. We do this by:

  • Bringing the community together to prioritize needs and set a vision of a better future
  • Convening groups to develop and select strategies and focus on initiative action plans
  • Raising funds through our annual campaign while also mobilizing other local, regional, state and national resources to execute change for improved community conditions
  • Measuring and evaluating results of community improvement initiatives
  • Communicating information about critical needs within our communities and how people can help make a difference


United Way of Washington County's Mobilizing Communities strategy engages communities to create lasting positive changes to community conditions. Our work focuses on three impact areas: EducationFinancial Stabilityand Health. These are the building blocks for a good life for all – a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family, and resources for good health.
