Supporting Our Agencies

List of Our Partner Agencies | United Way Partner Agency logo

Your donation supports a network of close to 100 programs delivered by our 41 partner agencies. They provide vital social services to hundreds of thousands of people throughout the region—single parents, abused women, young children and teenagers, the elderly, the physically challenged, the homeless, and the many new immigrants who need help to realize their dreams of a better life in Canada.

United Way is the only major funding organization that delivers significant core operating support to social service agencies. This base support of funding provides stability and allows agencies the flexibility to develop and respond to emerging needs of the communities they serve. In addition to core funding, United Way York Region supports several grant initiatives such as enhancement funding and Strength Investments.
