About Us

We Love It When Everyone Thrives.

United Way has always taken pride in working to improve the community for everyone. We unite our donors, volunteers, community leaders, nonprofit partners, and government at all levels to solve challenges through innovation, compassion, and action.

We’re working to ensure everyone has access to resources, quality education, enough to eat, and a safe place to call home. And we won’t stop. When we work side by side, such a future is possible.

Our Commitment to Racial Equity


Racial justice guides our work so that everyone in King County can benefit from its prosperity. In our role as a grantmaker, fundraiser, and service provider, we hold a responsibility to restore power and resources to Black, Indigenous, and other people and communities of color. We believe transforming inequitable systems and building an equitable future is only possible when we work with, invest in, and advocate for those historically marginalized and oppressed.
