Here’s what we care about.

We want to see food on every table. A roof over every head. High-quality early-childhood education for every child. Living wages for every adult. We care about putting opportunity in the hands of all people in Galveston.

How we work for change

1

We seek the need

We are in constant communication with our Partner Agencies to understand where there is the greatest need and how we can best respond. This allows us to be nimble and effective in meeting the immediate and long-term needs of our community.

2

We make giving easy

Contributions to United Way of Galveston are carefully distributed to local charitable organizations when they are needed the most AND where they are needed the most. Whether you make a one-time donation or give through workplace giving, we make it easy for you to give to the causes you care about most.

3

We stay informed

We are connected with an extensive network of community partners and charitable organizations. We stay aware of their operations and emerging needs, especially when disaster strikes. This allows us to make wise decisions about partnerships and how to be a trusted source of information for donors.
