United Way of North Central Florida

United Way of North Central Florida serves a six-county area that includes Alachua, Bradford, Dixie, Gilchrist, Levy and Union counties. Since our inception in 1957, we have raised more than $91 million for the region. Our mission is to improve lives and connect donors to results that demonstrate a lasting impact in the lives of the people we serve. 

70% of the money donated to the Community Investment Fund focuses on three core areas: education, income and health. We also address immediate needs, 30% of the Community Investment Fund goes to immediate needs like emergency food and shelter.

We currently have 33 Community Impact Partners and fund 25 different programs through those partners.

For every $1 invested, United Way creates nearly $3 of total impact! Matching grants bring more than $3 million to the community. By leveraging local money with federal grants and through thousands of volunteer hours, the money donated to United Way of North Central Florida goes farther.
