Together for Tomorrow

So many across our community are struggling. A recent United Way Centraide Canada report found that 42% of Canadians could only cover expenses for less than a month if their income was lost.

When you give to United Way Simcoe Muskoka, you help neighbours stay in their homes, seniors afford essentials, individuals gain meaningful employment, and survivors of violence find safety.

If you’ve already given, thank you. If not, please consider making a gift today so that, together, we can build a stronger, more resilient tomorrow.
