At United Way of San Diego County (UWSD), we are your partner to ensure that all children, individuals, and families have the support they need to achieve educational success and financial security.

UWSD is committed to building a strong San Diego County by listening to the people in the distinct and vibrant communities that make up our region. As a trusted community leader, we continuously seek to understand where we can make the most meaningful impact. By collaborating with these communities, we harness the collective strength of our countywide partners — including schools, businesses, policymakers, nonprofits, and government entities.

Together, we work to scale our impact to urgently address the deeply rooted disparities in education and economic mobility. Specifically, we focus on closing gaps within our community by providing essential support in several key areas: early childhood literacy, middle and high school career readiness, and economic resources for individuals and families. By bridging these gaps, we aim to create access to opportunities that allow all San Diegans to thrive at every stage of life.

Uniting partners. Fueling passion. Cultivating impact.
