We are 100% local

Since 1976, Powell River & District United Way has been improving lives and building community across Powell River and the qathet Regional District. Every dollar raised here, stays here, supporting local people and programs.

​We fund and co-create programs with local partners to respond to pressing needs in our communities.

​We raise funds, mobilize volunteers, and advocate for change in three areas: kids, poverty, and community.
