Giving Day

YOU DID IT!

THANK YOU!

Your dedication to Greater Atlanta is amazing.

Thank you for your donation to help improve the lives of the nearly 500,000 children and their families lacking the basic necessities to thrive and reach their full potential.

Because of your support on Giving Day, together we met our generous donation match and raised over $84,000!

Continue to support improving Child Well-Being by volunteering for Unite for Service Week, June 20th – June 25th. Onsite availabilities are limited.

Our Child Well-Being Mission

At United Way of Greater Atlanta, our Child Well-Being Mission is to improve the well-being of children, their families, and the communities in which they live to create a thriving and inclusive Greater Atlanta where every person, regardless of race, identity or circumstances, has equitable opportunities to live a healthy life and to acquire the education and skills they need to earn a sustaining wage so that they may achieve their full potential. 

To improve the well-being of children, families, and communities we have identified Investment Priority Areas within Child Well-Being that offers the highest potential to impact communities with low well-being and the region overall.
