Youth Opportunity

At United Way of Central Kansas, we believe every child deserves the chance to thrive. That’s why we collaborate with those who care for them—families, educators, neighbors, and local agencies—to ensure kids have the support they need to grow, succeed, and soar.

Healthy Community

At United Way of Central Kansas, part of our mission is to help others live healthier lives by partnering with agencies that provide food to homebound neighbors, transportation to medical appointments, access to medical devices, and support for families and individuals in need.

#GivingTuesday is a global generosity movement unleashing the power of radical generosity. #GivingTuesday was created in 2012 as a simple idea: a day that encourages people to do good. Since then, it has grown into a year-round global movement that inspires hundreds of millions of people to give, collaborate, and celebrate generosity.

Join the movement and give, whether it’s some of your time, a donation, or the power of your voice in your local community.

Ellinwood and UWCK

The United Way of Central Kansas hosted their 2nd annual Ellinwood Tailgate Kickoff at the first Ellinwood Eagle home game this past weekend. Not only did the Eagles get the victory, so did UWCK thanks to the support of all those who came out to join us. UWCK raised nearly $1600, double what was raised last year, to support the Community Impact Programs in Ellinwood.
