United in Action
We are in the business of positive change.
The United Way of Cayuga County works with local companies, area governments, other nonprofits and numerous other organizations to collectively address and seek solutions to some of the area’s most complex challenges.
Our corporate partners contribute much more than money. These partners connect us to the community and drive enthusiasm and knowledge for our work. Their ideas, volunteer power, in-kind support and more are helping build stronger communities.
“I’ve always been passionate about doing things for the community. When my son and I first moved up here, he was able to go to Booker T. Washington Community Center summer camp program through help from the United Way. It benefited me and I want other people to know how much good it does and how many people benefit in ways others don’t realize.”
