State and Local Umbrella Organizations

United Way of Dane County

The greatest problems facing Dane County are complex. Secure housing, livable wages, quality education, and health supports are all interconnected – without one the others fall apart. That is why we need to tackle these issues at their root, working together to ensure no wrong door for families who are striving to maximize their potential. And that is where we at United Way of Dane County come in!

Access to Community Services

Access to Community Services

Access to Community Services was founded on the belief that all people deserve equal access to opportunities that allow them to live, work, and enjoy life in their communities. Member charities provide people with disabilities and other challenges access to job training, support in living situations, and assistance with recreational time through arts programs and sports opportunities.

Hunger Relief Fund of Wisconsin

The Hunger Relief Fund of Wisconsin, administered by Hunger Task Force, Inc., is a coalition of the state’s leading anti-hunger agencies that work at the ground level to provide nutritious food to those who need it most: children and the elderly, veterans, and working-poor families.

Wisconsin Association for Environmental Education

Wisconsin Association for Environmental Education

Wisconsin has a proud tradition of supporting environmental education. In 1935, we became the first state to pass legislation requiring “adequate instruction in the conservation of natural resources” for certification to teach science or social studies in public schools. Today, networks of organizations work to ensure that all communities in Wisconsin, in addition to school children, have the knowledge and skills necessary to build ecologically mindful communities. For Wisconsin residents, sustainability = civic mindedness.

Creating Healthier Communities

Building stronger communities and empowering people to take action to improve health and wellbeing through giving opportunities, causes, volunteering, and health resources.
