We’re excited to be launching YEAR THREE of our journey to create Mighty Change by 2026 and are continuing to put all of our efforts toward improving the lives of children, families and individuals throughout our community!

Because of YOUR generosity, we’re already seeing incredible progress toward the Bold Goals our community has set in the core impact areas of Health, Housing & Homelessness, Education and Workforce Development.

In this video update, Carla Vargas Jasa shares some of the amazing things happening at Valley of the Sun United Way and throughout our community—all made possible thanks to YOU!

Valley of the Sun United Way recently announced more than $9.3 million in strategic investments in programs and services provided by 101 nonprofit organizations and schools throughout Maricopa County.

Thank you for participating in LIVE UNITED week. This July, we joined forces to support our community partners and local schools for a week of engaging service projects across Maricopa County!

Together, we prepared classrooms for the school year, packed over 400 heat relief kits for distribution across the Valley, stuffed hundreds of backpacks with school supplies for both teachers and students and more.

Did you miss LIVE UNITED week?

We invite you to join us for our next community-wide activation.
