Welcome to the Heart of Florida United Way

Every dollar makes a difference.

United Way's Community Campaign helps thousands of tri-county residents who are struggling to survive. As the economic crisis continues and good-paying, full-time jobs are hard to find, a growing number of families are struggling to pay for housing, utilities and other basic needs.

Every donated dollar helps someone in need. Your tax-deductible gift also makes you an important partner in United Way's efforts to move the needle in these four priority areas:

Building Safe Communities Through Education
Creating safer neighborhoods by reducing violence - especially youth violence - through programs that mentor teens, improve high-school graduation rates and promote life success.

Improving Financial Stability
Helping low-income families increase their financial stability through financial literacy programs, credit counseling, improved access to affordable childcare and more.

Developing Healthy Children and Families
Improving health for children, youth and adults by providing programs that support healthy beginnings, access to healthy choices and encouraging family engagement and lifelong education.

Alleviating Hunger and Homelessness
Preventing hunger and alleviating homelessness for Central Floridians by providing food and supportive services to low-income and homeless individuals and families through programs and initiatives that provide case management, shelter, meals, counseling and access to community resources and mainstream public benefits.

Please click below to make an immediate tax-deductible gift that will improve lives and the health of our entire community.

If someone you know needs help or is facing a personal crisis, simply dial 2-1-1, United Way's free, 24-hour confidential information and referral helpline and crisis/suicide hotline. Help with housing, utilities, food, depression, suicidal thoughts or any health/human service need is just a phone call away.
