About
For nearly 100 years, United Way California Capital Region has faced the region’s deepest and most urgent needs by bringing people together to build stronger, healthier, more compassionate communities.
As we face a pandemic, economic downturn, deep roots of racial inequity and poverty, these words have never been more relevant. And the need for United Way’s time tested expertise in bringing people together is needed now more than ever. We hope you will join our movement across Amador, El Dorado, Placer, Sacramento and Yolo counties to tackle the tough questions, address root issues and create large scale solutions that end poverty and make the Greater Sacramento region stronger, healthier and more compassionate, starting with our children.
Join us at Square One.
