The mission

What this organization describes

Live United
Everyone deserves opportunities to have a good life: a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health. That's why United Way of Central Georgia's work is focused on the building blocks for a good life: Education - Helping Children and Youth Achieve Their Potential Income - Promoting Financial Stability and Independence Health - Improving People's Health Advancing the common good is less about helping one person at a time and more about changing systems to help all of us. We are all connected and interdependent. We all win when a child succeeds in school, when families are financially stable, when people are healthy. United Way's goal is to create long-lasting changes by addressing the underlying causes of these problems. Living united means being a part of the change. It takes everyone in the community working together to create a brighter future.
