Mission
The mission of the Centre County United Way is mobilizing our community to action so everyone can thrive.
Vision
We create opportunities for a better life for everyone in Centre County by raising money in an annual fundraising campaign to invest in programs available to Centre County residents. We are all connected and interdependent; the idea that we all win when a child succeeds in school, when families are financially stable, and when people are healthy. It is less about helping one person at a time and more about making sure the systems are in place to help everyone in Centre County.
Key Focus Areas
People know the name and often recognize our logo or our mantra to “LIVE UNITED,” but that doesn’t mean they understand what we do.
The answer is simple: We help organizations that help people. That’s it.
That’s our most important goal. To help as many of our neighbors in Centre County have access to programs that focus on the building blocks of a happy and healthy life — education, financial stability, and health.
Our Programs
Centre County United Way is proud to bring Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library to the youngest members of our community!
Imagination Library of Centre County is a Book Gifting Program that mails a new book each month to children from birth to age 5 who live in Centre County.
