UWP Administrative Office Under Construction

Built in the 1870’s, our iconic office building, is now undergoing much needed structural repairs and accessibility updates so that United Way Peterborough & District can remain an open and inclusive space to serve our community. A Government of Canada grant, administered through the Enabling Accessibility Fund has made this much needed renovation possible, a project our Board of Directors first identified in 1999!  The local construction team of Millennium Park Building Services will be hard at work over the next months to create a safe, accessible and inviting space for our team, volunteers and supporters to connect as we continue to work toward our vision of empowering everyone to improve lives and build strong communities.

Despite the mess, it’s still business as usual at United Way Peterborough & District!

  • Our team members continue to be reached at their UWP telephone numbers and email addresses
  • We can meet you virtually or in person (by appointment please) at our temporary office space located at Peterborough Business Hub (398 McDonnel Street)
  • A secure lockbox is available at the front of our 277 Stewart Street building, and mail is collected daily.

We thank you for your patience and invite you to watch our social channels for updates on this exciting project!

June is National Indigenous History Month.

We honour First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples: their histories, cultures, and ongoing leadership.

As a network, we have deepened our engagement by inviting network-wide individual and collective reflection, and we continue to reflect on our commitment to reconciliation.

From the Campaign trail to the quiet in-between moments. A look back at a year that’s shaped us. As we step into our 85th year, we’re carrying it all forward ❤️.

🌸 It’s time to break the stigma.

Menstrual health matters and access to products and education should never be a barrier.

Through the Period Promise campaign, United Way Peterborough & District is working to address period poverty in our communities.

On Menstrual Hygiene Day, we call for dignity, access, and inclusion for all.
