United Way of Greater Waterbury and the Connecticut Community Foundation have joined together to help the growing number of families and individuals who find themselves facing food and housing insecurity and other urgent financial difficulties in this economic downturn.  Our organizations share a commitment to improving lives and an ability to mobilize caring people in times of need. With your help, we believe that together we can achieve more for our shared community than either organization could achieve alone.
