Mission
United Way of Beaver County improves lives by mobilizing the caring power of our community. The United Way of Beaver County is a centralized, non-profit fundraising organization allocating resources, primarily through its member agencies which provide for the human needs of the community.
Our Programs
Beaver County is home to countless non-profit organizations that work tirelessly to serve individuals and families in need. Traditionally, the UWBC has allocated to annual campaign contributions to our Member Agencies, which support ALICE and poverty-stricken households.
Recognizing the growing challenges revealed by ALICE statistics, we established The ALICE Fund to extend our reach. This fund allows us to provide targeted mini-grants to additional non-profit organizations addressing the needs of this vulnerable population.
In 2024, we proudly awarded $120,000 in mini-grants, supporting 14 vital programs led by Beaver County non-profits. Learn More
The United Works Program is a collaboration between the United Way of Beaver County and Job Training for Beaver County (JTBC) which is aimed at helping ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) households access educational opportunities that were previously out of reach in an effort to help them transition from ALICE to a higher level of financial stability.
