2026-2027 Giving Campaign

Thank you for your interest in supporting the 
programs and initiatives of the
 United Way of Southwest Missouri & Southeast Kansas 
and its community partners...  
it is only through the leadership and generosity 
of local individuals and businesses, like you, 
that we continue to expand and strengthen community
 plans and programs to help our neighbors in need.

Today, many of our neighbors are working hard to overcome barriers – rising household costs, impacts of disasters, and decreasing safety-net supports – and get ahead. Tackling these challenges requires caring, visionary partners who are ready to invest in our communities and the organizations that serve them. 

Together with community partners and supporters like you, United Way connects people to the opportunities they need to reach their full potential, giving children the chance to learn, families the chance to dream, and our community the chance to build back stronger than ever before. 

When you give to United Way, you are:

- equipping young people with the tools to succeed in school and beyond;

- ensuring access to nutritious food, medical care, and support;

- helping families make ends meet and create a sustainable future; and

- addressing urgent needs today for a better tomorrow.

United Way of Southwest Missouri & Southeast Kansas has always been about neighbors helping neighbors: a legacy of generosity and impact spanning 100 years. 

Will you join us and help us reach our shared goal of $600,000 raised for our community?
