Together We Thrive: A New Chapter for United Way Northwest Indiana
At United Way Northwest Indiana, we’re not just responding to change—we’re leading it.
Our organization is undergoing a strategic transition to deepen our impact and meet the growing needs of the communities we call home. These changes are purposeful – designed to help us more effectively mobilize resources, people and organizations around a shared goal: to create a region where every person has the opportunity to thrive.
As we move forward, our commitment remains clear and strong: We are focused on helping hardworking individuals and families in Northwest Indiana not just survive, but to truly thrive. Through our Level-Up program, we will help 1,000 families escape poverty…and that’s just the start.
Every day, United Way makes a difference by addressing critical needs in four key impact areas:
- Healthy Community
- Youth Opportunity
- Financial Security
- Community Resiliency
These pillars define our mission and guide every step we take.
Picture a world where families have access to the health resources they need, where children can pursue their dreams, where communities can thrive in the face of crisis and where families have the support to achieve lasting stability.
That’s the world United Way is working to build—right here in Northwest Indiana.
We can’t do this work alone: We unite nonprofits, businesses, government agencies, and individuals to take on the toughest challenges—together.
Join Us. Be Part of the Movement.
As we reshape our organization to be more agile, more collaborative, and more aligned with community needs, we invite you to stand with us.
Let’s mobilize communities to action—so all can thrive.
Let’s build the future we believe in.
Let’s do it together.
United, we are stronger. United, we are unstoppable.
UNITED IS THE WAY!
