CT United Ways

United is the way we work together to create brighter futures.

United Way of Connecticut is the state association for the 13 local United Ways in the state. We support their efforts to build stronger, more resilient and more equitable communities where everyone can thrive. Working together, we empower households across every zip code and improve health, education and economic mobility.

Contact your local United Way to explore community solutions, learn about health and human service issues in your area, donate or volunteer.

Volunteering at least 80 hours a month can satisfy work requirements for Medicaid (HUSKY) and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). To search for volunteer opportunities by town, click below.
