Your United Way

Your Moment is waiting. Volunteer!

It’s National Volunteer Week and we are spotlighting the engaged individuals who are helping make a difference in our community. Learn how Beverly Jurkowski is impacting the hearts, hands and minds of retirees. Read Bev's blog post.
 

Tickling the Ivories of Our Community

You may recognize Greg Marcus playing the piano at our BluTender events, but his involvement with the United Way of Greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County goes back even further. Get to know our new Chairman of the Board and his vision for United Way.
 

He Called It Our Secret

“It came up casually in conversation. He died. What? No one thought it would be something I would have liked to have known? It happened years ago, but to me it felt like yesterday. Every day I relived the abuse. It affected so many facets of my life.”  Read Rebecca's story.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness month. Throughout April we will share several compelling stories to raise awareness on this important topic. Want to get involved? Learn more about Denim Day.
