DONATE YOUR TIME
United Way offers so many ways for you to support your community and volunteering is an important component of our work. Every one of us has skills and strengths and special things we can do to help. And when we reach out to one, we draw more power to reach out to all—because helping is contagious.
THE GIFT OF TIME
United Way of Southington is made up of "Southington People Helping Southington People." Whether you have just a few hours to help with our annual food drive, or can volunteer on a regular basis to deliver meals to our homebound seniors, every minute helps. When you volunteer with the United Way of Southington, you are helping to make our community a better place for all.
