Community Impact: Poverty To Possibility

Our focus includes meeting the basic needs of the most vulnerable people in our communities and building the capacity of individuals to engage in employment, education, and/or skills training opportunities. Although interventions funded by United Way Peterborough & District may not be sufficient to overcome poverty completely, they are designed to help people experiencing poverty develop plans and prepare for a better future — to move from poverty to possibility.

Community Impact: Strong & Healthy Communities

Supporting the overall well-being of individuals and families is vital to building a healthy & strong community. Eliminating barriers and improving access to services allows people to contribute to community and develop a sense of belonging. United Way works to build strong communities and promote health and well-being for everyone. Through surveying local needs. and focusing our efforts on vulnerable populations. United Way helps individuals and families build the assets they need to handle life’s challenges and achieve their goals. We are strengthening Peterborough City & County by developing strong, resilient people to build thriving communities.

It’s hard to believe 2016 was 10 years ago! 🕰️

So much has changed in the last decade and yet, so much has stayed the same. Ten years ago, we were celebrating a major milestone: 75 years of serving Peterborough & County. We were raising funds through fun community events, supporting ongoing initiatives like Backpacks for Success, hitting big team milestones, and making headlines alongside media partners who continue to uplift our work.

Now, as we celebrate 85 years, the most important thing remains the same, we’re still here building community and changing lives for people across the City of Peterborough. 💙

Did you know❓
The third Monday in January is widely known as Blue Monday, the saddest day of the year.

The holiday season has passed us by, daylight is fleeting, nights are cold, and the weather is chilly. It’s no wonder some of us are feeling low, but it’s important to know you are not alone 🤍

United Way Peterborough & District is proud to partner with 211 to offer support when times get tough
