Strengthening Our Community

The United Way of Polk County is a local nonprofit organization, dedicated to building a stronger, more caring community. We do this by conducting an annual fundraising campaign, and directing the money raised to a variety of social service agencies that specifically serve the people of Polk County. Our board carefully evaluates the work of the agencies in our area considering the impact programs have on the lives of our residents, and choose the most efficient, effective, and critical programs to receive this funding. So a gift to the United Way of Polk County will make a real impact, making a wide cross-section of services available to the people of our area.

Volunteers Wanted!

Are you interested in getting involved? Volunteer to lead a workplace giving campaign or community fund drive, or perhaps serve on our board of directors! Please send an email to info@unitedwaypolkcounty.org for more information.
