Overview

Mission Statement

To improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of communities.

What We Do

Our purpose is to raise funds through an annual community fund drive to fund programs that positively impact the community. In addition, we fund special initiatives around early childhood education, volunteerism, obesity and facilitate collaboration around important community issues.

How We’re Different

United Way of Mower County is not just a fundraiser. We work in close partnership with private business, government and nonprofit agencies to pinpoint and address community issues. United Way of Mower County does NOT fund agencies, but programs that directly impact individuals and families in the community.

In order to qualify for funding programs must fit under one of our three impacts areas (1) Income (2) Education (3) Health.
