At United Way, we fight for the Education, Health, Housing and Financial Stability of every person in Orange County. Our community’s problems are complex and interconne­cted. We can’t focus only on education for a child who is hungry and doesn’t have a stable home, access to healthy foods or the opportunit­y for an active lifestyle. And finding a job doesn’t always mean a parent will have the income needed to support a family. We have four issues and one community. To make a difference for everyone, we must be UNITED4OC. We mobilize the caring power of the community to create brighter futures for every child and family in Orange County. • Over 2,000 OC students drop out of high school every year. United, we help struggling students graduate from high school and prepare to succeed. • 1 in 4 of our residents live in poverty. United, we work to close the poverty gap for local families. • 1/3 of our children are overweight or obese. United, we focus on programs that promote healthy eating and active living. • 28,000 OC children and their families are homeless or housingins­ecure. United, we provide access to stable housing and help prevent future homelessne­ss. Please join us and make a difference today!
