United Way of San Diego County is improving lives by mobilizing the caring power of the San Diego community.
Everyone deserves opportunities to have a good life: a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health.
Our Vision
United Way envisions a vibrant community built on opportunity for everyone.
Our Mission
To spark breakthrough community action that elevates every child and family toward a brighter future.
The foundation for a child’s success starts with family stability. That’s why United Way is primarily invested in the early years: to set kids on the right path toward academic achievement. Because without a solid start in school, most kids won’t succeed.
And without family stability – a supportive home, enough income to live, access to health care – a child can’t thrive in school. United Way helps fill in the gaps.
We all benefit when our neighbors are successful and thriving.
