William & Hayden
United Way of Central Minnesota is connecting people and resources to strengthen our community. Watch how our programs have changed the lives of William and Hayden.
We strive to provide struggling youth in Central Minnesota with the tools needed to build a successful future — from tailored teaching and mentors to meaningful after-school programs. Education is everything, and every single person’s right.
With your help, we can provide nutritious food, physical and mental health programs, homelessness assistance, fitness activities, and more to those who need it. Talk about a moving tribute.
When an individual or family needs assistance, we act as a direct link to the financial resources and programs required to help them proudly achieve independence and more importantly, a belief in themselves.
Stories that pull at the heartstrings and inspiring people and causes are one thing. Tangible results and effort combined with action are what United Way of Central Minnesota is truly about. We know impact matters more than anything else. In one year, we directly and positively impacted the lives of nearly 100,000 people in our community. Together we can make that number even bigger. We promise to continue to strive towards impact every single day.
