Live United 2025
For the community, by the community
uniting the community for equity
Learn what it means to "Live United."
United Way of Rhode Island is incredibly grateful for the hundreds of thousands of Rhode Islanders who have sustained our work since our inception in 1926. Our commitment to this work is matched only by the passion of those who support us. The LIVE UNITED 2025 strategic plan was built by this community for this community and will guide United Way of Rhode Island’s next five years with a bold and transformational plan that aligns with our rich legacy of proven programs and community engagement. We’re committed to our community and plan to invest $100 million over the next five years to build racial equity in Rhode Island and to create justice and opportunities for all. But, we can’t do it without you.
The video of our January 2021 Annual Celebration, right, celebrates the heroes among us and shares our vision for the next chapter of United Way of Rhode Island.
