United Way of Metro Chicago
At United Way, our goal is not to return to normal, because normal didn’t provide opportunities for all our neighbors. Our goal is to create a vibrant Chicago region where all our neighbors have access to the resources they need to thrive. Our goal is to build back better by ensuring all individuals and families can meet their basic needs and working alongside community leaders to rebuild neighborhoods to be stronger and more equitable.
