Inspiring

We work to show how the generosity of individuals and communities can be a force for positive change at a deep and meaningful level. 

Diversity

Diversity and inclusion are at the heart of what it means to LIVE UNITED.  To effectively and authentically address our community’s most pressing needs requires an outward and intentional commitment to inclusion across all dimensions (race, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, religion, physical or mental ability, etc.). United Way of San Juan County has made this commitment and continues to address these issues.
