Our Work

Great Rivers United Way is working to advance the common good within our seven-county region by narrowing our focus to three Strategic Objectives:

1. Positively impact our youngest community members – Increasing academic success & strengthening family supports
2. Stabilize household economic situations so people experience thriving lives – Improving access to living-wage employment & decreasing the number of households in financial crisis
3. Support a healthy and socially-connected community – Improving access to prevention and intervention programming for mental and physical health & improving connections for at-risk community members to community resources
