Mission: To improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of our community. United Way collaborates with other organizations to create programs to fill gaps in services. The Food Access Saturday program is one such example. Through collaborative meetings, United Way saw a need in the community for a food distribution program during the weekend. Through a partnership with Interfaith Food Ministry, we helped fill that need by creating Food Access Saturday, which is now a monthly program that has provided thousands of individuals with much-needed healthy food since its inception. We at United Way know there is a need in the community for more access to healthcare, so we collaborated with California CareForce to bring a free 2-day health clinic in January 2020. It was an overwhelming success, so there may be be future free clinics.
