Community Care Fund Awards

For 90 years, United Way of Tompkins County has worked to improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of our communities.

COMMUNITY CARE FUND ISSUE AREAS

The Community Care Fund is an effective way to do the most good with a single contribution. United Way tracks the results of donations to the Community Care Fund so donors are assured of accountability and results, measured in changed lives and a healthier community.

United Way believes in supporting a strong system of quality agencies to meet community needs. We also believe in forming partnerships among public and private organizations to help with specific issues and needs.

Community Care Fund gifts are helping to advance the common good for all in our communities. Every dollar goes directly to help those programs and services making a difference in our community based on the seven issue areas noted below. Reach out a hand to one and influence the condition of all. More than ever, in these times, we all must LIVE UNITED.
