Our Partners

COMMUNITY PARTNERS

As part of our Live United/United is the Way credo, a major portion of our work involves teaming up with other companies, nonprofits, agencies, and community leaders to address the complex challenges our community members face. Our 211 Helpline is one way that we connect residents-in-need to trusted resources and organizations within Fresno and Madera Counties. We maintain the database and connect the callers, but the resources are all those of trusted partners. When we offer Free Tax Prep, the program doesn’t only happen at our office; there are sites all over both counties at various community business organizations, schools, and churches. Even our outreach work is done in partnership. We simply would not be able to do without other people sharing in the work.

CORPORATE PARTNERS

Our Workplace Giving partners help us keep the lights on. Truly. Not only that, they help raise unrestricted funds for other important local charitable organizations. Through payroll deductions, employers and their employees can raise money for their favorite non-profit while building company morale, having fun, and making a difference in their own neighborhoods. If you’re interested in Workplace Giving, please contact our Resource Navigator, Charles Wheeler, @ cwheeler@uwfm.org.

FUNDERS

Our funders change often, depending on the length of any given grant or initiative. Currently, we count the Employment Development Department, the IRS, and the Community Services Block Grant as some of our primary funders. In turn, we also fund organizations and companies in work that supports our mission of bringing prosperity to everyone in Fresno and Madera Counties. This list is always changing but we will be updating with a current list soon.
