Driving Change Where It Matters Most

United Way of Gratiot & Isabella Counties takes a strategic approach to creating meaningful change. We assess the most pressing needs in our communities, invest in high-impact programs, and continuously monitor results to ensure lasting impact. Through these efforts, we support hundreds of programs and initiatives that empower individuals and strengthen families in mid-Michigan.

Healthy Community

Everyone deserves access to healthcare, mental health support, and resources for overall well-being. We fund programs that provide essential health services, increase food security, and promote wellness for all.

Youth Opportunity

We believe in the power of education and mentorship to shape bright futures. Our investments support early childhood education, literacy programs, after-school activities, and mentorship opportunities that help kids and teens succeed.

Financial Security

A stable financial foundation is essential for families to thrive. United Way funds programs that promote workforce development, financial literacy, and access to basic needs, helping individuals build a path to self-sufficiency.

Community Resiliency

Strong communities are built on connection, collaboration, and support. We invest in crisis response, emergency services, and initiatives that provide long-term stability for individuals and families in need.

 Together, we are building a healthier, stronger, and more resilient community.
