COMMUNITY VOICES

DRIVE EVERY

DECISION. 

Local volunteers—your neighbors, coworkers, and friends—review programs, visit sites, and share their perspectives on where funds can make the greatest impact. Their insights ensure investments reflect the real needs and opportunities in our community.

Community Investment Grants are just one way United Way of the Lakeshore creates change. From volunteer mobilization to partnerships, advocacy, and direct initiatives, we’re uniting people and resources to build stronger, healthier communities across the Lakeshore.

We’re always looking for volunteers who want to serve and advise on our impact work. Together, we can shape the future of our region—because lasting change starts when the community leads the way.
