United Way of the Ohio Valley Mobilizing communities to action so ALL can thrive!



Serving Daviess, Hancock, McLean, Ohio, Union, and Webster Counties in Western Kentucky

United Ways across the country bring diverse people and resources together to address the most urgent issues their communities face.

Community partners often include schools, government policy makers, businesses, organized labor, financial institutions,

voluntary and neighborhood associations, community development corporations, and the faith community.

For many families, it’s not a long fall into hardship—

It’s one missed paycheck.
One car repair.
One medical bill.

That’s all it takes.

Poverty isn’t always far away.
Sometimes, it’s just one moment. 💙

We had an amazing time at Unity in the Community this past Saturday!

It was inspiring to come together with so many organizations, agencies, and community members who share a commitment to making our community stronger. It was a day full of friends, laughter, and the reminder that great things happen when people show up for one another.

We are incredibly proud to be part of a community that cares, serves, and comes together like this. Thank you to everyone who helped make the day so special! 💙 💙

Let’s talk about it!

What does “support” look like to you?

Is it help with bills?
Access to childcare?
A safe place to live?
Something else?

Poverty is more than a number. 💙

It’s the parent working full-time but still struggling to make ends meet.
It’s the family choosing between groceries and rent.
It’s the neighbor trying to get ahead—but facing barrier after barrier.

These are real stories happening right here in our community.

And together, we can help change them.

United is the Way.

This Memorial Day, we honor those who served and sacrificed for our country. 🇺🇸

A new addition to Carter Community Court 💚

This newly installed sign recognizes the incredible community partners who helped bring this neighborhood to life. From generous funding to hands-on support, each partner played a vital role in making homeownership possible for families in our community.

Carter Community Court stands as a reminder of what can happen when organizations and leaders come together with a shared vision. We’re especially grateful for the support of Governor Andy Beshear, Daviess County Fiscal Court, AARP Kentucky, United Way of the Ohio Valley, and U.S. Bank for helping make this community a reality.

We’re proud of what we’ve built together and thankful for the continued partnership that keeps our mission moving forward.
