Partner Agencies

United Way of Pierce County works with human service agencies throughout the area to meet the needs of the most vulnerable people and to work toward resolving the toughest issues affecting the community.

As part of the safety net of services, United Way funds more than 100 programs at 60 agencies. Like every United Way in America, community volunteers make funding decisions independently and locally. United Way's Investment Panel Volunteers have the important job of studying the human service needs, strengths and resources in Pierce County. These local volunteers review applications for funding, visit programs and research issues to determine which services best meet the needs of people in our community.
