Who We Are

As the nation's leading community-solutions provider, United Way invests in and activates the resources to make the greatest possible impact in communities across America. The United Way movement includes approximately 1,300 community-based United Way organizations. Each is independent, separately incorporated and governed by local volunteers.

United Ways bring communities together to focus on the most important needs in the community - building partnerships, forging consensus and leveraging resources to make a measurable difference.

United Ways ensure that each organization in which they invest is a non-profit, tax-exempt charity or human services agency governed by volunteers; that it submits to an annual, independent financial audit; and that it provides services at a reasonable cost.

United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley

The United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley believes that every person in our community deserves an opportunity for a good life by focusing on education, older adults and basic needs. We engage the people and organizations that bring the passion, expertise and resources to get things done. Be a part of the change and make a difference in your community. You can Give, Advocate or Volunteer. That’s what it means to LIVE UNITED.
