United Way of Amarillo & Canyon understands that people want to make a difference in their community. They want to help those in need, and we want to partner with others to make the greatest impact.

United Way’s experience reveals to us that the best way to help people is to focus on the underlying causes of the most serious problems in our communities. It takes the whole community – working together – to accomplish success. We are already doing so much, but it’s time to bring these efforts to a higher level.

United Way brings together people from across the community – people from government, business, unions, faith groups, nonprofits, and ordinary citizens representing different ethnic and geographic areas in our community – to tackle the issues that matter most. If it requires fundraising, advocating for change, or just getting people to work together, that’s what we do.

United Way of Amarillo & Canyon will stay focused on positive, measurable results: the lives that are changed and the communities that are shaped. We believe that’s what matters most.
