Creating Opportunites for a Better Life for All

Our mission at United Way of Mifflin-Juniata is to improve people’s lives by mobilizing the caring power of the community. It is our belief that every person should have the opportunity to gain a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health.

That’s why United Way’s work is focused on the building blocks for a good life:

  • Healthy Community
    We improve access to nutritious food and quality health education and services, so people have the resources they need to lead healthy lives. Together, we can improve health and well-being for all.
  • Youth Opportunity
    We create pathways for young people to reach their goals, from early childhood
    education to college and career success. Together, we are helping young people
    realize their full potential.
  • Financial Security
    We connect people to education, tools, and job training so they have financial
    freedom and peace of mind. Together, we can create a stronger financial future
    for every generation.
  • Community Resiliency
    We help communities prepare for, prevent, and respond to challenges, from crisis
    support and disaster relief to environmental protection. Together, we can address
    urgent needs today for a better tomorrow.
