Mission Statement

We believe everyone in the Southern Vancouver Island region should have the opportunity to reach their potential. Our vision is to build a safe and resilient community where happiness and belonging unite us. At United Way, we are dedicated to strengthening our local communities, bringing people together to make a difference.

About This Cause

Why donate to United Way Southern Vancouver Island? It's simple: we unite donors like you with trusted grassroots service providers who do good work in our great community. These service providers are part of a vast network of local agencies that are making life safer and healthier for families, seniors, and people with mental health and addictions challenges. Everyone benefits when we meet pressing community needs like access to nutritious food, essential health resources, and human connection. Many of the programs run by our funded service providers simply would not operate without the support of United Way Southern Vancouver Island donors. More than 2/3 of our community partners have no capacity to raise their own funds. This is where and why we step in. We also focus on the root causes of some of Southern Vancouver Island’s most complex social issues. We act as a convener, uniting people and organizations in the private, public and social sectors to come up with solutions and help make social change possible. Whether it’s meeting immediate community needs or tackling complex social issues, we are committed to improving people’s lives and building strong communities. But we can’t do this work alone. Unite with us.
