Mission: Founded in 1920, the United Way of Central Massachusetts' mission is to people and resources to improve the community. United Way of Central Massachusetts has played a critical role in the local community by helping those in need. As community leaders, we convene local resources - donors, volunteers, partners and agencies to address the most critical human needs, and create a positive, measurable impact in the community. Programs are aligned with our strategic goals: EDUCATION, FAMILY STABILITY, and HEALTH and SAFETY NET. Our entire community benefits when the most vulnerable members of our community find a way out of crisis, children are able to learn, people are healthy, and parents earn enough money to support a stable family. (Less)

United Way of Central Massachusetts is a 501(c)(3) organization, with an IRS ruling year of 1963, and donations are tax-deductible.
