United Way of Greater Atlanta
United Way of Greater Atlanta is a coalition of people—donors, volunteers, business leaders, community partners, and neighbors—working together to change what’s possible for families in our region.
Because right now, the odds are stacked against too many children. In Greater Atlanta, a child born into a low-income household has just a 4% chance of moving out of poverty by adulthood. We’re working to change that.
Our focus is simple: help children and families build stable, self-sustaining lives. That starts early, by supporting strong foundations in learning, and continues through access to career opportunities, financial stability, and the resources families need to move forward.
We bring people and partners together to connect families to real opportunities—and to change the conditions that hold them back—so that where a child starts doesn’t determine how far they can go.
United is the way forward!
