Our Work
United Way of Greater Texarkana is dedicated to improving lives in the Greater Texarkana area. To accomplish this mission, we focus our efforts on three distinct areas: Education, Income, and Health. We collaborate with area non-profits, local government and schools to effect positive change in our community.
Education
Education is the conerstone of individual and community success. Your donation helps fund programs that provide children, at-risk youth and adults access to quality, affordable learning opportunities, after-school care, and mentors.
Income
A person’s financial stability directly impacts their education and health. Thanks to your generosity United Way of Greater Texarkana is able to support programs that strengthen the financial stability of families in our community.
Health
Living well with a healthy diet, preventative care, and affordable, timely medical care allows us to live life well rather than focusing on survival. Your dollars allow United Way of Greater Texarkana to fincially support critical health-focused programs in our area.
