LIVE UNITED isn't just a slogan. It's not just a once-a-year annual fundraising campaign at your workplace.

It's a different way of living your life, 365 days a year.

United Way is mobilizing people into collective action through Giving, Advocating and Volunteering in the areas of Education, Income and Health. We believe these are the building blocks of a good life for everyone. By making results-based investments through our Community Investment Fund, you support long-lasting, measurable change in people's lives, right here in Asheville and Buncombe County.
