Video: What Is United Way? (And What It Actually Does) | WYDE.org explainers

You've seen "LIVE UNITED" everywhere. But what does United Way actually do? United Way isn't a single charity, it's a worldwide network of local ones, nearly 1,800 independent United Ways across about 45 countries, each serving its own community under one shared name. Its focus is the three building blocks of a good life: education, financial stability, and health. Here's how it works: United Way mobilizes an entire community, donors, volunteers, and companies, and funds the local programs and partners that tackle those needs. It helps tens of millions of people a year, and it runs 211, the free 24/7 help line that connects people to local resources. It's one of the most recognized names in American giving, built on neighbors helping neighbors. Causes like these are what WYDE exists to support. WYDE is a new platform, the Impact Exchange, building a way for causes to be funded continuously and governed by their own members. One day, causes could go public on it. ▶ Support your local United Way: https://www.unitedway.org ▶ Watch next: "What Is Feeding America?" + "The #1 Charity for Every Cause" United Way is referenced for educational purposes; this video implies no affiliation or endorsement. WYDE is the Impact Exchange where causes go public and become member-governed; a cause coin is a governance token, not an investment.
