Mission, Vision, and Values

Mission

United Way Fresno and Madera Counties creates paths to prosperity. We achieve this through resident-led and partner-supported work that acknowledges individual circumstance and prioritizes access, opportunity, and equity for all.

Vision

We envision a nation where one’s identity has no bearing on their access to education, well-being, or prosperity. We aim to achieve this goal by building a social infrastructure that connects people and communities to resources and opportunities for wealth creation.

Values

COLLABORATION
We work on issues that are bigger than any one organization, so we commit to building partnerships that are grounded in fierce solidarity, courageous vulnerability, and shared common goals.

EQUITY
We fight for those who need it most, especially Communities of Color who face longstanding disparities in access to health, educational, and financial security.

PROGRESS
We believe that the work of prosperity is an active process, and we recognize that the daily and ongoing cycle of learning, unlearning, and growing ourselves is the only way to make space for new, bold, and radical possibilities.
