WHO WE ARE
The United Way of Logan County has been working for good for over 58 years in our community. Financial support from the community - individuals, businesses and civic groups - allows United Way to partner with 14 programs that serve our county's youth, seniors, and those with financial or health challenges. Coming together, we can improve the health, education and financial stability of the residents of our county, and build a stronger community.
Won't you help us LIVE UNITED?
Consider this: 5.6 million US teens and young adults ages 16 to 24 are neither in school or working. Many of these "disconnected youth" are simply cut off from the education and career paths that could help them live a good life and make positive contributions to our society and our economy.
ALICE is an acronym for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. It is a new way of defining and understanding the struggles of households in our community.
According to the U.S. Census, it is estimated that around 18% of the population of Logan County, Illinois is age 65 or older. Programs that enhance the lives of seniors are of great benefit to the community.
Thanks to a grant from the Illinois Prairie Community Foundation, the Dolly Parton Imagination Library is now available to children in the Hartsburg Emden School District in Logan County. Our dream is to grow this program throughout Logan County!
