United Way of Central Jersey

At the United Way of Central Jersey, we spend a great deal of time assessing and monitoring the most pressing human service needs in our region. Perhaps as no other nonprofit organization in the area, the United Way takes a broad, objective view of the community as a whole. Informed by volumes of research and first- hand case studies, this global perspective ultimately leads us to some impartial and educated conclusions about what matters - about the area's most critical issues. Guided by the volunteers on our Board of Trustees, we address underlying causes - the reasons why problems exist. Volunteers give their time, talent and treasure to build a stronger, healthier Central Jersey community. The goal is to create lasting change by preventing problems from happening in the first place. With a focus on early child development and well-being, we are committed to the three pillars of a good life: Education, Financial Stability, and Health. The issues we face are complex and inter-connected. They cannot be addressed by a single group or organization. That is why working with the United Way of Central Jersey helps to ensure an integrated approach to solving community needs.
