United Way California Capital Region’s vision is to build
stronger, healthier, more compassionate communities in our region
by partnering with local employers and nonprofits to improve
people’s lives. Working with 750 employers in Amador, El Dorado,
Placer, Sacramento and Yolo counties, we hold workplace giving
campaigns to raise support for local nonprofits who share our
mission and for our United Way focus areas that bring together
these nonprofits to tackle tough issues in our community.
We want to positively impact three vitally important areas in our
region:
Education
STAR Readers project: ensure that all students
graduate from high school
Income
$en$e-Ability project: help people become
financially self-sufficient
Health
Fit Kids project: decrease obesity through
nutrition and physical activity
United Way California Capital Region is an independent local
affiliate of United Way Worldwide with a local board of
