A few words from some of the many Long Islanders we have helped

For nearly six decades United Way has been a staple in the Long Island community, working with nonprofit partners help residents achieve financial stability and good health, as well as receive access to an equitable education. Together, we can positively impact diverse families, individuals, veterans and seniors... these are their stories.
