GIVE TODAY-BECAUSE TOGETHER, WE CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE THAT LASTS.

For over a century, United Way of Erie County has stood beside our neighbors, lifting up those who need it most. Together, we’ve supported critical programs for children, families, and seniors-from hot meals and mentorship to emergency relief and recovery. Last year alone, we helped fund 17 organizations making life-changing impacts right here at home.

But there’s so much more we can do.

This year, with your help, we plan to bring new, direct services to Erie County-programs like Ride United for transportation, free tax preparation for hardworking families, and essential support for those on limited incomes. Your gift will go directly toward creating a safer, healthier, and more vibrant community for all.

Every dollar counts. Together, we can meet our $250,000 goal and fuel the change Erie County deserves.

“When we Live United, we don’t just change lives. We change what’s possible.”

Erie County has an abundant number of agencies providing care, support, and services to its residents. Previously, these resources were spread out among different lists and not readily accessible to those in need.  Erie County Cares is a new website with a comprehensive searchable database of community services to address the needs of the people in Erie County. The goal of this database is to be the first point of contact for individuals and families seeking information to provide resources and supportive services.
