Advancing the Common Good: Creating Opportunities for a
Better Life for All
Everyone deserves opportunities to have a good life: a
quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income
to support a family through retirement, and good health.
That’s why United Way’s work is focused on the building
blocks for a good life
-
Education – Helping
Children and Youth Achieve Their Potential
-
Income – Promoting
Financial Stability and Independence
-
Health – Improving
People’s Health
Advancing the common good is less about helping one person
at a time and more about changing systems to help all of us.
We are all connected and interdependent. We all win when a
child succeeds in school, when families are financially
stable, when people are healthy.
United Way’s goal is to create long-lasting changes by
addressing the underlying causes of these problems. Living
united means being a part of the change. It takes everyone
in the community working together to create a brighter
future. Give. Advocate. Volunteer. LIVE UNITED.
United Way of Dodge City kicked off their 2009-2010
campaign with the Dodge City Red Demon football team.
United Way supporters, volunteers and football fans were
treated to a tail-gate party and had a winning
combination of great-tasting food and fun.
