United Way serving Saint John, Kings and Charlotte We ignite the desire in everyone to improve lives and build strong communities. Our roles are multiple: we are a funder, partner, convener, and advocate.

The United Way serving Saint John, Kings, and Charlotte brings people and organizations together to build vibrant neighborhoods and strengthen our community. Here’s the key – we partner with over 50 local organizations to help nearly 1 in 5 people in this region. Instead of focusing on one single program, we focus on many programs to better help the community as a whole. This way, your donation not only goes to the needs that everyone is aware of but also to those that are less obvious -- but no less important.
