Overview

Mission

To support health and human services through sustained fundraising and to increase the community's capacity to address unmet needs.

What it reported doing in 2024

Annual campaign to raise funds for human and health related outcomes. Funds are dedicated by donors to United Way of Mason County's community fund or other tax-exempt organizations. To ensure our allocations meet identified community needs, the Board of Directors supports 3 funding priorities: Income, Education, and Health. The projects funded in these priority areas have made a significant impact with our funds. During the fiscal year, we supported 27 agencies. They are the following: A Gift for Special Children; American Red Cross; Boy Scouts; Boys & Girls Club; CareNet Pregnancy; Child Care Action Council; Community Kitchen; Community Youth Services; Faith in Action; Family Education & Support; Gateway City Outreach; Grays Harbor Food Distribution; GRUB; Hood Canal Food Bank; Mason County Dental Coalition; Mason County Public Health; Mason County Shelter; Mason County Literacy; Matlock Food Bank; North Mason Coalition of Churches; South Sound Recovery; The Storehouse; Thurston County Volunteer Legal; TOP; Turning Pointe Domestic Violence Shelter; Volunteer Chore Services; and WSU Extension 4-H.
