United Way of Greater Atlanta brings together people and resources to tackle complex issues and drive sustainable positive change to help our community thrive. We match the efforts of people and organizations across Greater Atlanta to work collectively on issues affecting child, family and community well-being. United Way of Greater Atlanta invests your donations where we can address those issues with the greatest possible impact. We direct your dollars from the Child Well-Being Impact Fund — think dollars given TO vs. THROUGH United Way. United Way deploys 16,000 volunteers to work across Greater Atlanta’s 13 counties.​
