About Us

United Way of Greater Toledo has completed all 2011 reporting requirements for United Way Worldwide, and has been granted membership in their international organization! 

Categories reviewed included fiscal responsibility, governance, campaign policies and success and community investments.


United Way of Greater Toledo is a collaboration of community volunteers, health and human-service providers and donors throughout Lucas, Wood and Ottawa counties who are committed to changing lives.

United Way assists citizen leaders to develop an agenda to strengthen community life in areas the community most cares about and needs. United Way facilitates and supports a wide range of community-based efforts to make a measurable impact in those areas.

Through sites in Lucas, Wood and Ottawa counties, United Way services are provided to people who need help, want to volunteer, need assistance from organized labor or want to donate. By maintaining offices in all three counties, United Way encourages and facilitates increased community involvement.
