United Way Is About Partnering

Rice County Area United Way is community-wide and community-strong. Workplace partners, individual donors and volunteers, and nonprofit agencies work together to achieve a powerful impact on the education, health and financial stability of people in the Rice County area. That's Living United!

Partner Agencies

Our partner agencies are nonprofit organizations that help families and individuals in crisis situations that may result in food insecurity, lack of safe housing, job loss and disability. They also help us raise all of our children to succeed in school and life with hope and strong ethics.

It’s not just about temporary solutions. Our partner agencies deliver evidence-based programs with measurable outcomes.

Workplace Partners

Workplace support has a tremendous impact on the education, health and financial stability of people in the Rice County area.

Individual Partners

Individual supporters -- like YOU! -- are the essential third leg of the United Way partnership tripod. They are committed to doing their part to ensure a caring community where everyone has the chance to develop their abilities and build a stable life.

Through an annual gift, a monthly or quarterly contribution, or volunteering with us or with one of our partner agencies, individual partners provide critical support to all we do.
