North Shore United Way

The North Shore United Way is a unique organization.  We are a local, independent United Way, working within our own communities.  Our mission is to improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of the communities in which we work.  We focus our resources on five areas of Critical Need: Basic Needs, Housing, Health Care, Child and After School Care, and Youth Substance Abuse.  We raise funds and direct those funds locally to help our own neighbors through our strategy of Local Giving, Local Impact. We also utilize a Grant Allocation process that engages community volunteers to conduct rigorous reviews of each program's goals, outcomes and financial management before funds are allocated.
