About Us

United Way gives individuals and families the opportunity to reach their potential and improve their quality of life. Whether we fund programs that teach conflict-resolution skills to a high-risk family, enable a senior to live independently or help a high school student stay in school, United Way’s impact is local, tangible and meaningful.  We rely on a diverse group to achieve positive outcomes in our community.

A volunteer Board of Directors determines United Way's direction, advises employees and takes responsibility for financial decisions and performance. The Board members are accountable for achieving United Way of Grande Prairie & Region’s objectives.
                                                                                                            
The Campaign Cabinet helps develop campaign plans and strategies.  Through the power of working together with hundreds of volunteers from workplace campaigns, agencies, donors and our Campaign Cabinet and Board of Directors, we are able to achieve greater awareness and positive change in addressing and overcoming social issues.

Our Staff are committed to our organization and our community. Staff members carry out the vision of our Board and Campaign Cabinet and are the stewards of the funds we receive from donors for investments in the community. 

Through your donations we are able to invest in priority issues and initiatives in our community to develop long-term solutions for: Poverty, isolation & loneliness, family stress & breakdown, violence in society and substance abuse.

By giving to United Way we stand UNITED FOR GOOD!
