Racism and discrimination have no place in our society, and Metro United Way joins others in calling for justice for reforms that will help prevent tragedies like Breonna Taylor’s from happening again. We envision Greater Louisville as a place where everyone has the opportunity to thrive, and we can only achieve this vision if we all, together, strive towards equity and denounce racism and violence.
Metro United Way not only helps to fund our area’s charitable organizations, we also work with government agencies and the community at-large, supporting them all with data, matching volunteers with volunteer opportunities, and mobilizing resources when and where they're needed. Like an orchestra’s conductor, we ensure we’re all playing the same tune.
Seldom does anything worthwhile happen without meticulous planning and without goals. Breaking the cycle of poverty is no different. That’s our long-term goal, but until that goal is realized, we’re making sure people have what they need to survive today.
We know the needs of our communities as well as anyone, and we put unique programs into place to address the unique needs of each neighborhood.

Research proves that caring volunteers working with students of all ages have the power to help kids boost academic achievement and put young people on track to enter kindergarten ready to learn and to graduate high school on time.
We're building a better community together.
