Your Impact Reaches Farther Than You Think

With your help, we mobilize support and solutions for the biggest challenges facing our community-making a difference, one person at a time.

1 in 4 Bay Area Households cannot afford basic necessities like food, housing, and childcare.

676,000 individuals in the Bay Area are food insecure—enough to fill Oracle Park just shy of 15 times.

12,912,020 Meals Provided. That’s the equivalent of feeding 35,000 people every day for a year.

Rose's Story: Finding Strength Through Support

Rose had been working hard toward financial stability. After moving seven times in four years, enduring over three hours of commuting to attend school, and being forced to use financial aid just to pay rent, safety net programs were giving her breathing room.

Your donation moves fast: it connects a neighbor to nearby food and benefits in one call, covers short gaps so dinner stays dinner, and helps a tight budget last the whole month. Will you make a leadership gift this season?

When many of us give, big change happens.

That is the United Way
