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.

United Way Peterborough & Distirct has been running Coats for Community for many years, and every year our community shows up with generosity and heart ❤️.

For the past two years, this program has been run in collaboration with our friends @path_ptbo (Peterborough Action for Tiny Homes).

This video shares a glimpse into how this long-standing program has evolved over the years.

If you’re able, we’re encouraging community members to donate warm winter items to support our neighbours facing the cold months ahead. Blankets, and men’s coats size L - XL are urgently needed at the moment, but every donation helps.

📍Drop off: 385 Lansdowne St E
🗓️ When: Wednesday (10-3) and Saturdays (9-3)
