About United Way of Cumberland County

Our mission is to improve lives across Cumberland County by strategically raising and investing resources that successfully impact prioritized human service and health needs while working in effective and innovative partnerships with direct provider agencies.

The concept of United Way originated in Denver, Colorado in 1887 when four clergymen and one public-spirited woman formed the first joint appeal for organized help in the United States. Their immediate goal was to help people who came searching for riches in the gold mines but instead, found misfortune. The concept that launched the first organized fundraising effort is still true of United Way today. Contributions are sought from everyone - not just the wealthy, and the money is distributed where it is needed most. United Way was born in Cumberland County on April 13, 1939.
