About Us

The United Way of Jamaica envisions a society where individuals and families achieve their human potential through education, financial stability and healthy living.   We envision a society where:

  • All children receive quality education that offers a pathway to a brighter tomorrow
  • The cycle of poverty and financial dependence ends, and productive livelihood begins for even the most disadvantaged
  • Everyone receives effective health care that improves the quality of life.

The United Way of Jamaica (UWJ) brings donors, volunteers, community leaders and other stakeholders to address pressing needs in our society.  We invest resources and build partnerships to support a wide range of services.   In times of disasters, we collaborate with our partners in relief and restoration efforts.

Our mission – “To mobilize resources to transform lives throughout Jamaica”.
