Who We Are

United Way of Central and Northeastern Connecticut is a nonprofit organization that has been meeting human care needs in the 40 towns throughout central and northeast Connecticut for 80 years. With its network of partner agencies, volunteers and community leaders, our United Way takes a leadership role in changing conditions to improve lives in Central and Northeastern Connecticut.

The annual United Way Community Campaign provides the opportunity for people in our community to support the causes and nonprofit organizations important to them. Through United Way’s Community Investment, donors’ gifts are invested in programs to ensure success for children, strong and healthy families and a thriving community. Programs funded through Community Investment are researched and monitored by knowledgeable, experienced volunteers to be certain that they maintain the highest levels of governance and financial accountability.
