Over 13,000 individuals and nearly 500 area businesses helped United Way of Dane County to raise $17.3 million during its 2024 Community Fundraising Campaign. On Tuesday, the nonprofit hosted a Community Celebration with more than 500 attendees at the Monona Terrace.

Through its Plan for Community Well-Being, United Way of Dane County is investing in local nonprofits working on family well-being, with a focus on supporting the areas of youth opportunity, financial security, and a healthy community. This year marks the organization’s first cycle funding local nonprofits that align with this plan.
