United Way Annual Campaign
Raising funds for lasting change in the community.
The United Way of Greater St. Joseph Annual Campaign is a community-wide fundraising effort that supports programs improving education, health and financial stability across Northwest Missouri and Northeast Kansas.
Each year, individuals, businesses and organizations come together to create meaningful, lasting change in our community.
About the United Way Campaign
The United Way Campaign is a long-standing tradition powered by hundreds of dedicated volunteers each fall.
Through generous donations, the campaign helps:
- Fund local Partner Agencies, ensuring essential services are available to support individuals and families across our community.
- Support impactful United Way Programs and Initiatives that focus on education, health and financial stability.
- Strengthen the United Way Community Investment Fund, a year-round grant opportunity that helps organizations respond to emerging and emergency needs in our community.
Because of this support, United Way reaches thousands of individuals and families each year.
