GET INVOLVED

Give.

Your donations make programs and services attainable for those that need it most. Giving to our annual campaign helps us reach more members of our community and makes a real, local impact.

Make a Donation

Advocate.

Advocacy can happen in several ways. Interacting with United Way on social media can go a long way. Engagement helps boost our posts, widening our audience. Follow and engage with us on the platform of your choice: Facebook, Instagram, or Linkedin.

You can also sign up for our monthly newsletter. Knowing about our programs and sharing them with family or friends can help spread the word about resources available and share about the mission of United Way of Central Florida.

Lastly, you can help advocate for our community through our state legislature. Through their funding and community building efforts, Florida’s local United Ways are an integral part of Florida’s education and human service systems.  Focusing on education, income, health, and other safety net issues they are engaged in myriad ways to improve the quality of life for everyone in their communities and across the Sunshine State.

Learn About Advocacy

Volunteer.

Whether it’s volunteering at a food drop location, becoming a ReadingPal at a local elementary school, helping families with tax preparation or by joining a community service project, we can get you connected locally to make a difference.
