85 Years of Serving Broward County

Where There's a Need, There's United Way

The fiscal year 2024-2025 is an exciting time at United Way of Broward County as we are celebrating our 85th anniversary.

Since 1939, your United Way has led the fight for the Health, Education, and Financial Prosperity of every person in our community.

For more than eight decades, we have supported our community as our country has weathered wars, recessions, and a once-in-a-century pandemic. Closer to home, we have helped our neighbors navigate through countless complex challenges — such as the opioid epidemic, hurricanes, the current housing crisis and so much more.

Celebrate 85 Years with Us!

For 85 years, United Way of Broward County has fought for the Health, Education and Financial Prosperity of EVERY person in our community.

Our mission is driven by collaboration with businesses, community members, governments, non-profits, and philanthropists. This united effort advances our cause, helping people at every stage of life reach their potential.

If you’ve contributed to United Way in any way — donor, volunteer, board member, employee, or advocate — you’re part of a powerful, generational legacy.
