United Way of Central Alabama builds a great community and advances the common good by bringing people together to help others. By pooling our resources and working together, we pave the way for real, tangible change in health, education and financial stability. There’s power in numbers, which means we accomplish much more when we come together as a whole. Our way — the United Way — is more powerful than any one entity or individual alone. By partnering with us through volunteering or donating, you’re a part of something bigger than yourself, fulfilling your own life and the lives of others. If you’re in need of assistance, United Way can connect you with an organization that can help meet your specific needs. By letting us help, you’re joining a community that cares and forming meaningful relationships in the process.
When you give to United Way, you make a difference by helping bring about lasting change that improves people’s lives. Join the fight for our community. Together, we can Live United. Donors can make a pledge payment, offer a memorial gift in memory of a loved one, transfer stock securities, or make an endowment gift.
One of the best ways to invest in your community, make it a stronger, healthier place to live, and create meaningful change is by volunteering. We connect you with volunteer opportunities, events and campaigns that allow you to make an impact. We have a wide range of volunteer opportunities throughout the year that span different impact areas.
Check out our available volunteer opportunities and start making a difference today. We are stronger together.
