125 Years of Community Leadership

United Way Worldwide (UWW) is a global leader in 41 countries and territories, including nearly 1,800 independent organizations in the United States. These local United Ways are advancing the common good, creating opportunities for a better life for all, by focusing on the three key building blocks of education, income and health. United Way of San Luis Obispo County was originally incorporated as Associated In Group Donors in 1958. In 2012, UWW will celebrate its 125 year track record of engaging individuals and businesses to address community needs. The United Way movement creates long lasting change by addressing the underlying causes of problems that prevent progress in these areas, and mobilizes millions of people to action—to give, advocate and volunteer—to improve conditions in their communities. LIVE UNITED continues to be the call to action for everyone to become a part of the change.


Donate a Car

Mission Car

You can make a contribution to United Way of San Luis Obispo County by donating a used vehicle.  All you have to do is contact MissionCars.com and they will take care of the rest.  Their mission is to assist people in donating their vehicle, using the proceeds to benefit other ministries and nonprofits.  Mission Cars will determine the value of your vehicle, and do all the work of cleaning, advertising, showing, and selling it.  After it sells, they will send you a receipt for your taxes, and United Way will receive a check for half the net proceeds, and the other half goes to Alpha Academy, a local mentoring program.  This is also a very real, practical way to help people who may not be able to afford the newest cars.  If you’d like to donate, or would just like more information, please visit their website or call MissionCars.com at (805) 596-0258.
