United Way of Jackson County is building community and changing lives. We bring people together to learn, engage and create change on the issues facing our community. We help eliminate barriers to improve all our lives by focusing on the building blocks of a good life – Education, Income, Health and Transportation.We believe people are connected and interdependent. When we reach out a hand to one, we influence the condition of all. We all win when children form healthy attachments through a loving family, when they succeed in school, graduate and make successful transitions to adult responsibilities. We all win when families are financially stable, when people have good health, and when people are engaged and connected. We all win when people have transportation to pursue education, access medical services and work. Through our role as convener, facilitator and advocate, our goal is to create long-lasting change by addressing the underlying causes of problems. This belief forms the foundation for our strategies for education, income, health and transportation.Connect with and follow us on Facebook at www.facebook.com/UnitedWayJacksonCounty, on Twitter at www.twitter.com/uwjackson, and on Instagram at www.instagram.com/uwjacksoncounty.
