United Way for Southeastern Michigan

Light The Way to a better future with United Way for Southeastern Michigan. 

In Macomb, Oakland, Washtenaw and Wayne counties, more than 40 percent of households struggle to meet basic needs like food, housing and health care. 

They are ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed).

They are parents who can’t afford quality child care. They are seniors forced to choose between buying food or medication. They are families struggling under the weight of rising prices. They are our family members, our friends and our neighbors.

They are the reason United Way for Southeastern Michigan is working alongside our partners and community to close the gap between what people are earning and the cost of living so that every family, in every ZIP code, has an equal opportunity to thrive.

When ALICE moves from merely surviving to thriving, our entire community wins. Your support helps make this a reality.
