Harness the Power of Caring
At United Way Northwest Indiana, we collaborate with businesses, nonprofits, and government agencies to address the growing financial struggles in our community. Many Northwest Indiana residents—our neighbors, families, and friends—are working hard yet still struggle to afford basic needs like housing, food, and healthcare. Through strategic partnerships, we connect resources, drive impactful solutions, and create opportunities that help individuals and families achieve financial stability.

It always seems impossible until it's done.
