Each week we will post Virtual Volunteer challenges that focus on our work around Education, Financial Stability, Health, and Basic Needs. These four pillars are the foundation we use to help ALICE.
You can join in the fun by following Heart of Florida United Way’s social media accounts and taking the latest Challenge.

Who we serve
ALICE is the acronym which stands for Asset Limited Income Constrained Employed – these are households in our community that are working to make ends meet, but can find themselves derailed by one an unexpected circumstance. Right now, we are ALL experiencing that unforeseen circumstance, and we are all impacted in different ways. Some of us are working from home, some are working essential jobs to keep our community moving, and others have found themselves furloughed or laid off due to the closure of businesses.
Additional Opportunities
We are also hosting virtual volunteer opportunities. For a list of organizations needing your help or to contact our Volunteer Center visit: https://www.hfuw.org/virtualvolunteer/
Thank you for your support and remember to Live United!
