What we do:

  • Help families build emergency savings accounts
  • Provide Credit & Budgeting classes
  • Help families earn credentials for better pay

With your help, United Way of Central Florida promoted financial stability for 3,291 families in the tri-county area. Too many families are caught in a cycle of debt and a lack of savings to survive economic downturns. Financial education programs helped families manage debt, build savings, and improve job skills, creating opportunities that will help create cycles of prosperity for themselves and their children. Call 2-1-1 if you want to build your future.
