About Us

Our experience tells us that the best way to help the most people is to focus on the root causes of a community's most serious problems. It takes the whole community - working together - to make that happen.

At United Way of Greater Stark County, we bring together people from across the community to tackle the issues that matter most. Programs funded by United Way of Greater Stark County support children, youth, families and the community's basic needs. Recently, United Way selected priority areas of care. Programs that deal with early care and education, graduation and training beyond high school, and family stability will be the focus of the agency moving forward.

For United Way, results matter - the lives we change and the communities we shape. We know that's what matters to you. Our vision is to be the most effective United Way in the most caring community. Our mission is to energize the community to care for one another by addressing human needs with measurable results.
