United Way of Saginaw County's mission is to increase the organized capacity of people to care for one another. We encourage all to LIVE UNITED through giving, advocating and volunteering.
A Century of Service
For over 100 years, United Way of Saginaw County has fought for local residents. United Way is a volunteer-directed nonprofit operated by a trained staff. The United Way connects funding to important programming. But we are more than just fundraisers. We are the hand raisers. We are the game changers. We are the stop-talking and start-doing and take on the impossible taskmasters.
In Saginaw County, nearly 50% of residents struggle to meet their most basic needs. We fight to help build better futures for Saginaw County residents. We fight for those who do not have a voice. We fight for Saginaw County residents by funding programs that combat the root causes of financial instability.
Change Doesn't Happen Alone
United Way makes it easy to give to all the causes that matter within a community. We rely on numerous small donations to create meaningful change. We ensure that all money donated to us is used in the most efficient and effective manner. United Way volunteers investigate the needs within our community and ensure United Way dollars are distributed to programs that work to address core issues within the community. By giving, advocating, and volunteering, we can all work towards achieving the vision of a vibrant Saginaw County community where all families can thrive. We have one life. To live better, we must Live United.
Community Impact Strategy History
As of January 2020, United Way of Saginaw County will pursue the goal of lifting nearly 5,000 Saginaw County residents out of the ALICE and poverty classifications. United Way facilitates community partnerships, administers grants and implements programs. These programs allow UWSC and their partners to unite together, enhancing capacity and adding value to the community. Additionally, to further their Community Impact Strategy, UWSC's funding progressed from a closed allocations process to an open, more inclusive Community Impact Strategy. This new model allowed any 501(c)(3) health and human service provider that services Saginaw County residents to submit a program proposal.
