Student United Way

"Everything we are, underneath everything we do, we are all people: connected, interdependent, UNITED. And when we reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all. That's what it means to LIVE UNITED."

United Way is a non-profit organization that helps in the areas of income, health, and education.

In 2008, United Way initiated a 10-year program designed to achieve the following goals by 2018:

  • Improve education, and cut the number of high school dropouts — 1.2 million students, every year — in half.
  • Help people achieve financial stability, and get 1.9 million working families — half the number of lower-income families who are financially unstable — on the road to economic independence.
  • Promote healthy lives, and increase by one-third the number of youth and adults who are healthy and avoid risky behaviors.

 Student United Way is a very small branch of this worldwide movement. Our local United Way affiliate that we are chartered through is United Way St. Croix Valley, serving Pierce, Polk and St. Croix Counties. The club was started two years ago and hopes to continue to advance the lives of people and create unity in the community.
