Working For You

People Helping People in the River Region

At River Region United Way, our strength lies in the people behind the mission. Our dedicated staff members work each day to bring people together: mobilizing resources, building partnerships, and connecting volunteers to meaningful service. From coordinating fundraising efforts to supporting local agencies, every member of our team plays a part in improving lives and strengthening communities across the River Region.

But we don’t do it alone.

We are supported by an inspiring group of volunteers who lend their time, talents, and leadership to help us carry out our mission. From strategic guidance to hands-on service, our team is a reflection of the caring power of this community.

Board & Junior Board: Leadership That Inspires Action

Our Board of Directors and Junior Board are made up of passionate professionals from a wide range of industries. They provide vision, oversight, and energy to help guide our work and amplify our impact. Their commitment to community service reflects the heart of what we do. Meet our boards and see how you can get involved.

Volunteer Opportunities: Make a Difference, One Hour at a Time

Whether you’re reading to children, delivering meals to seniors, or leading a financial literacy class, your time can change lives. We offer hundreds of volunteer opportunities every day—across neighborhoods and across needs. Looking for leadership opportunities? Many of our volunteers serve on committees or working groups that guide our impact. Let the River Region United Way connect you with volunteer opportunities.

Loaned Executives: Strengthening Our Campaign Season

Each year, businesses across the region lend some of their best and brightest to our Loaned Executive Program. These volunteers serve as key campaign ambassadors during our annual fundraising season, helping us connect with more than 250 local businesses. Learn how to become a Loaned Executive.

Be Part of the Change

When you support River Region United Way—whether by volunteering, serving on a board, or participating in the campaign—you’re doing more than giving time or resources. You’re helping children succeed in school, families stay financially stable, and neighbors access the care they need.

Together, we can build a stronger, healthier River Region where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Join us, and be part of something bigger than yourself.

Because when we Live United, we all rise.
