Creating a United Solution... Together.
Our neighbors need our help now more than ever. Together, we will overcome this crisis and rebuild stronger. United Way fights for the health, education and financial stability of every person in every community. Your support is needed to help Long Islanders - individuals, families and seniors - achieve stability during a time of great uncertainty, as they cope with the effects of COVID-19.
UNITED TOGETHER (WE WILL SURVIVE)
'United Together (We Will Survive)' is an original song written by a local musician to inspire hope for those struggling through this crisis and was specially created for United Way of Long Island. Thank you to the artists for their support: Joe DeJesu, Kenny Friedman and Bob Stander.
