United Way Leeds & Grenville Sets $900,000 Campaign Goal for 2025


United Way Leeds & Grenville is proud to announce our 2025 Campaign Goal: $900,000. This ambitious target reflects the growing needs of our region and the essential role that United Way plays in supporting programs and services across 41 communities.


Last year, with the help of our donors, volunteers, and community partners, we facilitated over 100,000 interactions between clients and service providers. These connections provide critical support in areas such as food security, housing stability, mental health, crisis response, and youth programming.

“Our goal is ambitious because our community needs help more than ever — and United Way Leeds & Grenville is ready to find solutions and fund the supports that matter most. But we can’t do it without you,” said Hailie Jack, Executive Director of UWLG.
Why Your Support Matters

United Way is more than a fundraiser — we are a community builder. Through partnerships with 18 funded agencies, we ensure that donations are invested where they will have the greatest impact. These agencies provide life-changing programs for individuals and families, helping ensure that no one is left behind.

Every dollar raised in this campaign will stay 100% local, strengthening the network of services that thousands of people in Leeds & Grenville rely on each year.


Join Us in Building Hope

Reaching this year’s goal of $900,000 will mean continuing to provide stable funding for agencies that deliver essential services. It means strengthening our community safety net. And it means creating a future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.


Together, we can make it happen.
