United Way Waterloo Region Communities

United Way Waterloo Region Communities is dedicated to helping people live better lives in every one of the seven communities we serve. We are fundraisers who support a network of agencies whose programs and services are locally focused, informed, connected and deeply invested in helping people reach their full potential. We engage and mobilize the community around grassroots causes. The funds we raise support a network of agencies whose programs and services deliver community wide benefits. Our investments include everything from emergency food and shelter services to enable people to meet their basic needs; to counselling and harm reduction programs helping people live healthier lives; to after school and mentorship activities which provide vulnerable young people a chance at a better future. To ensure critical agencies, programs and services get the funding they need, and to ensure donors have a clear line of site to the work we do, we have focused on cause-based giving. Campaign for a Cause is a targeted community campaign that provides the opportunity for you or your workplace to give back in a way that aligns directly with your values and goals.
