California United Ways COVID-19 Relief Fund
California United Ways have established a statewide relief fund to help Californians impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Monies raised will help families impacted by quarantine, disruption of income, and other challenges, while ensuring the equitable distribution of philanthropic resources through coordinated community relief efforts.
Through this fund, neighbors can help neighbors and also support other Californians who are vulnerable. In other words, this relief fund complements regionally-specific funds launched by local United Ways and our nonprofit partners to lift up those who have been knocked down by this extraordinary crisis, community by community.
United Ways fight for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in every community. Your donation connects Californians with the resources they need, beginning with the families who live in the place you call home. Help United Ways support your neighbors and your neighbors' neighbors down the road. Give today!
