United Way is a national movement consisting of a national office in Ottawa and over 100 local United Ways serving communities across Canada. Our mission is to improve lives and build community by engaging individuals and mobilizing collective action.So many people think of United Way as a fundraising organization. But we are so much more than that. We are a beacon for social change. We don't just scratch the surface of social issues by using band-aid solutions.
