When people engage with United Way, they bring their passion, skills and vision to our efforts and focus their sights on the greater good because, together, we can accomplish far more. All of us bring our unique perspective, experience and enthusiasm to the cause, and that diversity is the wellspring of innovative solutions we need to affect large scale positive change. United Way of Story County offers a variety of affinity groups to further accomplish change in our community. Whether it's women, young professionals, or major donors, we work better when we're united together.
