Inland Empire United Way

Programs provide disadvantaged children with the resources they need to learn and succeed in school. These programs are working in our community to alleviate childhood hunger and food insecurity and provide school supplies and to meet other basic needs. We partner with local schools, companies, community organizations, and volunteers to accomplish these goals. The kids pack program supplies homeless and low income school children with nutritious foods to ensure the child has enough to eat during weekends. The school tools program exsists so that children in our community will have anopportunity to learn and succeed. School tools provides teachers from low-income schools with a resource center where they can receive supplies for their students at no charge. At the teacher resource center, teachers are able to choose from a wide array of basic school supplies, fun incentive items, and arts and crafts supplies that encourage creativity.

Additional programs include reentry services and workforce development programs that assist residents experiencing barriers to employment. Services include resume workshops, job coaching, interview skills training, and wraparound services including food, clothing, and transportation assistance to assist program participants to securing employment.
