WHAT WE STAND FOR

We are improving lives and empowering Kentuckians to succeed by uniting around education, health, and financial stability — the cornerstones of thriving families and communities.  We envision Kentuckians united to give, advocate, and volunteer to advance the common good for all.

2018-2020 STRATEGIC PLAN

KENTUCKY UNITED WAYS

There are 22 United Way organizations advancing the common good in Kentucky - working toward real change at the root of our community's problems.  Each of these organizations is independent, separately incorporated, and governed by local volunteers.

Supporting statewide education initiatives and effective public policy will improve community conditions across the Commonwealth. United Way of Kentucky works every day to ensure that kids get a great start through early childhood education initiatives like United Way Born Learning Academies. We advocate for government policies that strengthen Kentucky families and communities. We provide local United Way organizations with the resources and training opportunities they need to better serve you, right in your neighborhood.

OUR FOCUS AREAS

We fight for the health, education and financial stability of every person in every community. United Way advances the common good by creating opportunities for all.

ADVOCACY

Because government is a critical decision-maker and the major provider and funder of health and human services, United Way actively engages in public policy to ensure all Kentuckians have the opportunity to achieve better health, a quality education and financial stability.

On June 3-4, United Ways of Kentucky, Indiana, and Ohio joined forces with United Way Worldwide to offer a unique low cost, donor-centric, high value learning opportunity for local United Ways of all sizes.

NEWS & EVENTS

United Way of Kentucky convenes local United Ways, business leaders, community leaders, and elected officials across the Commonwealth. We strategically plan our events and programs to enhance the work of local United Ways in their community.

Because of this, United Way of Kentucky events vary in size and audience - some are open to the public, while some are exclusive for members.
