UNITED WE HELP FAMILIES ACHIEVE FINANCIAL INDEPENDENCE

United Way of Buffalo & Erie County is fighting to increase financial stability in this community. We work to identify initiatives that promote employment and workforce development, provide financial education, and ease the burden of tax season by offering free tax preparation.

Financial Stability: Workforce Development. Helping hard working people succeed in the workplace. Financial Education, giving people the tools to understand their finances and plan for the future.
