Pikes Peak United Way's mission is to improve the quality of life in our community. We believe that through strengthened collaboration, we will achieve measurable improvements in education, income stability, and health for the residents of El Paso and Teller Counties.

Why Pikes Peak United Way?

As a leader in our community, PPUW is an organization with the capacity to successfully serve as a catalyst for change by addressing immediate needs and working to provide long-term solutions.

It's Local:  Our strategy helps the most vulnerable in El Paso and Teller Counties. Over 142,000 local lives were impacted last year through your support.

It's Efficient:  PPUW is one of less than 20 United Ways worldwide that boasts a Cornerstone Program, comprised of local corporations and foundations that underwrite its administrative and cost of fundraising expenses, allowing your gift to go directly to programs and services to help those in need.

It's Effective: Agency programs are assessed by over 100 business and civic volunteers, both prior to and after funding, to make sure your donations are used to meet the greatest needs in the community and measurable results are obtained.

It's Easy:  You choose the way you want to get involved. Donate, advocate, or volunteer.
