United Way of Kenosha County's (UWKC) mission is to mobilize the caring power of our community to advance the common good by achieving outcomes in the key areas of education, income and health.  In the area of education, UWKC works to insure children and youth achieve their potential through outcomes around academic achievement and productive and engaged young adults. In the area of health, UWKC works to improve people's health through outcomes focused on healthy living and access to health and safety resources. In the area of income, UWKC promotes financial stability and independence through outcomes focused on improved living and employability skills and management and acquisition of assets.

Last year more than 12,637 low-income households were assisted by the partner programs funded through United Way's investment process while another 8,000 low-to-moderate income individuals were touched directly through United Way programming including the FamilyWize discount prescription program, the Readers Are Leaders Program, the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) Program and other volunteer activities.
