Addressing Urgent Needs Today and Advancing a Better Tomorrow.
At United Way of St. Lucie and Okeechobee, we believe that a strong community starts with ensuring everyone has access to life’s basic needs. That’s why we partner with organizations to provide essential services, including access to food, safe shelter, assistance with rent, mortgage, and utility payments, and support in overcoming immediate barriers to safety or employment. But meeting basic needs is just the beginning—we also work alongside our neighbors to build resilient communities that are connected, supportive, and prepared to face any challenge.
