The United Way of Delaware County, Ohio is in the business of creating meaningful and tangible impact in our community.We are focused on education through programs and services that help children and youth achieve their potential. Your contributions help to increase access to quality child care and early childhood education. They help to support youth mentoring programs and scouting programs that develop tolerance, diversity and conflict resolution. They provide advocacy for abused and neglected children and support for school children who are at risk due to substance abuse within their families. At the Family Resource Center, you can see your United Way contributions at work in a variety of programs, including those that focus on income by promoting financial stability and self-sufficiency. United Way and the Community Action Organization have reached out to residents with free tax filing assistance and earned income tax credit counseling, through volunteers trained through the government's VITA program.
