Focus Areas


Spokane County United Way’s fund distribution process begins with a careful assessment of our area’s human care needs. Area volunteers work with local experts, area business representatives and government leaders to identify Spokane County’s greatest needs and human care obstacles.

The Process


This process serves as our guide in identifying where we can have the greatest impact:

  1. Meeting Basic Needs
    Respond to the most basic needs of individuals and families while providing the foundation to move toward economic independence.
  2. Nurturing Children and Youth
    Support our children’s development so they enter adulthood ready to achieve their full potential and are prepared to contribute to the community’s future.
  3. Strengthening Families and Individuals
    Increase the stability of families and individuals during times of crisis while increasing their capacity to prevent future crisis.
  4. Fostering Independence
    Assist the elderly and individuals with special needs to lead independent lives while providing support systems for care givers so that they are better prepared to care for their loved ones.
