You Make the Difference

The Cape and Islands United Way leads social impact in the region. Partnering with donors, volunteers, and nonprofit organizations, our mission is to improve lives by mobilizing the caring power of our communities to advance the common good on Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket.

Your generosity makes relevant, sustainable community impact possible. Each year, we distribute more than $700,000 to local nonprofits to support our community in the areas of health, education, economic stability, basic needs, and housing.
