Overview

Mission

United way of treasure valley mobilizes the caring power of our community to advance the education, health, and financial stability of every person.

What it reported doing in 2025

Community investments - powered by community donations and driven by community assessment data. Grants to aligned, trusted, local community partners' programs improve the quality of life for thousands of residents by providing opportunities for success. These grants ensure children succeed by entering school ready to learn and provide support to students inside and outside of school hours. They help create and sustain healthy habits, provide access to preventative medical, dental and behavioral health services for low-income individuals and families. They provide job training, leading to livable-wage jobs, asset development, and financial literacy. They also help low-income families obtain affordable, permanent housing and much more.
