Help us help more families

You can turn $100K into $200K

The stubbornly high unemployment rate in our region is creating an unprecedented demand for basic needs, food and utility assistance. United Way of North Central Massachusetts received a very special $100,000 gift from a generous donor to put to use immediately.  

With your help, the goal is to raise another $100,000, which will allow us to provide food and utility assistance to thousands of additional families in need. 

 

Here is how you can help:

 

Any new or increased individual giving to United Way’s Community Impact Fund will help go toward the $100,000 goal.

Any new or increased corporate giving to United Way’s Community Impact Fund will go toward the $100,000 goal.
