Communities We Serve

United Way of Southwest Alabama brings diverse people and resources together to address the most urgent issues Southwest Alabama face. Through unique partnerships and approaches, United Way mobilize resources beyond the dollars that are pledged through the fund-raising efforts. Our community partners often include schools, government policy makers, businesses, organized labor, financial institutions, voluntary and neighborhood associations, community development corporations, and faith-based organizations. The communities we served are Mobile, Washington and Clarke Counties.
