Lubbock Area United Way

We invest financial resources in 23 local community partners who provide services in the areas of lifelong health and independence, empowering communities, creating strong families and individuals, crisis and emergency relief, and succesful children and youth. The programs and services we fund are an intergral part in ensuring the safety, health, and well-being of every person in our community.

Our mission is carried out by collaborating with organizations throughout the community including other non-profits, school districts, businesses, government entities, and coalitions to address priority needs. We continuously work to address priority issues identified in our strategic plan and our community status report which include: creating opportunities to move households toward financial stability, increasing access to educational programs and materials to promote literacy and educational attainment for people of all ages, supporting local prevention efforts and access to services for victims of child abuse/neglect, sex trafficking, and family violence, and advocating for local access to quality mental health services and support.
