United Way

About

United Way of Massachusetts Bay is a nonprofit that brings together individuals, corporate partners, community leaders, legislators and organizations to tackle systemic challenges in eastern Massachusetts, and it has a presence in Boston’s Seaport. Its work centers on five impact areas: building economic mobility, strengthening educational opportunities, centering youth and young adult success, scaling safe and stable housing, and stabilizing the safety net. The goal is to remove barriers so everyone can share in the region’s prosperity.

With 90 years of local impact, the organization develops programs, fuels new ideas and takes innovative approaches to entrenched inequities, keeping communities at the center of its work. It also publishes research and reports through its UnitedInsights series, which questions how philanthropy can give more effectively. The organization has recently added key roles in corporate philanthropy, communications and development, which it says are meant to amplify its impact across the region.
