FAQs > United Way in Your Community > Why should I give to United Way?
United Way represents one of the most extensive collaborative approaches to create lasting change in our community.
Each and every contribution becomes part of a major community building effort to improve social conditions, lift people out of poverty and change lives in our community.
United Way’s vision is a place where we all live with financial stability and independence; where all neighbourhoods are safe and residents have a sense of well-being; and where all children are getting the right start in life and have the support they need to get them through the middle years and their high school graduation.
We bring together organizations, businesses, governments and community members who care about the issues we face in the Alberta Capital Region. Together, we work to make the greatest impact possible on the most pressing social issues in the region.
