The mission of United Way of Greenwich works to identify and respond to local health and human service needs, and raises the necessary funds to meet them through a community wide effort.
In addition to fundraising, the United Way has helped establish a number of Greenwich charities and civic organizations including Family Centers, Greenwich Housing Authority, Kids in Crisis and Abilis (formerly ARC).
United Way sponsors the Community Planning Council, Youth Services Council and the Committee on Late Life Issues, each of which help to identify the needs of all Greenwich residents.
With the help of volunteers, the United Way of Greenwich coordinates a number of annual events, including Vivapop's All American Soap Box Derby, Oktoberfest and the Annual Sole Sisters Luncheon and Fashion Boutique.
Information on how to volunteer or donate is available on the United Way of Greenwich website.
