Alaskans gather at United Way's 2025 Community Campaign Kickoff.

To donate is to believe Alaskans will have a bright future.

Your gift today and repeated throughout the year makes greater impact possible. Your generosity shows up as more people thriving throughout Anchorage and across Alaska, and your trust in United Way of Anchorage turns investments into measurable change for Alaskans—a responsibility we take seriously. When you entrust us with your support, we think strategically about where to invest it so that it makes the greatest difference. Will you help more people and donate?


Thanks to our generous donors, United Way of Anchorage had the highest per capita donor rate in the U.S.


This support meant we offered unparalleled backing for initiatives, programs, resources, and services for children, adults, and households in Anchorage and Alaska. Additionally, we’ve often had the distinction of having the lowest overhead of all United Ways in the U.S., helping to improve thousands more lives.

Community Investment

Successful resource management relies on investing today for results tomorrow: for children, families, companies, or causes. Alaska’s communities deserve support. What you put into United Way today creates stronger outcomes for our future. Building a thriving community requires all of us—and it starts with you.
