United Way of Greater Portland

We envision a world where all individuals and families achieve their human potential through education, financial stability, and health.

United Way of Greater Portland makes strategic investments in our community with the ultimate goal of improving people’s lives, both by helping individuals and by creating community level change. Our strategies include leading cross-sector collaborations, advocacy for public policy changes, and funding direct services provided by partner agencies. Improving quality of life is about the education, financial stability, and health of everyone in our community. We work collaboratively to ensure that children succeed in school, individuals lead healthy lives, and everyone has the opportunity to achieve financial well-being.
