How We help
United Way is different to other types of non-profit organisations as we are not a one-issue organisation. We allocate funding to over 70 community service organisations in the Geelong region. Community service organisations who have been approved to receive funding from United Way Geelong Region are called ‘Community Partners’.
Below are the 9 social issues our Community Partners address in the Geelong region.
• Disability
• Homelessness
• Poverty
• Social Isolation
• Vulnerable elderly
• Educational disadvantage
• Crisis
• Substance use
