Change doesn’t happen alone. Hope isn’t a one-man band. Resilience doesn't happen without help. We have one life. To live better, we must Live United.

​At United Way of the Mid-Willamette Valley we focus on supporting our friends and neighbors in need, because we all benefit when we each have an opportunity to reach our full potential. We work together with businesses, government, schools, faith groups, individual community members, and nonprofits - because it takes the whole community to get the kind of results we need.

MISSION

Connecting people, resources, and community so all children and families have the opportunity to succeed.

VISION

In our communities everyone can achieve their full potential, live a healthy life, and realize a positive future.

PURPOSE

To connect and support all community partners across government, business, philanthropy, faith communities, non-profits, and the private sector to achieve lasting social change.
Heroes are not giant statues framed against a red sky. They are people who say: This is my community, and it's my responsibility to make it better.
- Tom McCall, former Governor of Oregon
