United Way of Northern Santa Barbara County is Advancing the
COMMON GOOD
Advancing the common good means creating opportunities for a
better life for all. United Way is committed to improving
the conditions by focusing on these building blocks: Financial Stability |
Education | Health
|
Basic Needs
Educationis the
cornerstone of individual and community success. It’s
essential to getting and keeping a job with a livable wage
and health benefits. And it’s fundamental to a community’s
economic prosperity: a well-educated workforce attracts
world-class jobs.
Achieving Financial Stability-
As
many as one-third of working
Americans do not earn enough
money to meet their basic needs.
These individuals are walking a
financial tightrope — they are
barely able to get by, with no
ability to save for college, a
home, or for retirement. With
your help, United Way is working
to cut in half the number of
lower-income families who are
financially unstable.
United Way views
gaps in health & basic need services as a serious
problem that severely affects our community.
Without access to basic need services,
individuals and families are unable to break
free from the cycle of dependency and
poverty to achieve their full potential.
Our
goal is to create long-lasting changes by addressing the
underlying causes of problems. When we reach out a hand to
one, we influence the condition of all. We invite you to be
a part of this change. To support this vision for the future
of Northern Santa Barbara County. Together, if we all do a
little - we will accomplish great things - together.
