About us
At United Way of San Antonio and Bexar County, our vision for a bright future is captured in our slogan: LIVE UNITED. We believe every man, woman, and child deserves an opportunity for a good life. This means our children have a safe and healthy start in life; our students stay in school and graduate; we do all we can to strengthen individual and family well-being; and we provide a safety net of emergency assistance for our neighbors in need. Many large, complex issues stand in the way of a good life for many members of our community. No single agency or organization, public or private, can tackle these issues alone. At United Way, we work every day to increase the organized capacity of people to care for one another. We are a “uniter,” bringing people together to improve people’s lives in our community so they are able to live stable, independent lives and flourish. So they are able to LIVE UNITED.

United Way brings the community together! Hundreds of volunteers, Loaned Executives, United Way staff and corporate and agency partners came together to support local teachers this year! The 2024 United Way Write Start Project, presented by USAA, provided teachers in Harlandale ISD and East Central Independent School District with more than $40,000 in school supplies this summer, easing the financial burden of preparing their classrooms. Thanks to our 2024 sponsors, USAA, Cavender Auto Family and Principle Auto Group, for helping us make this project a success. Want to give back?

We are proud to share the success of our recent partnership with the UTSA School of Data Science! This year, 13 UTSA students applied their data science and innovative knowledge at local United Way partner agencies.
The inaugural Data Science & AI Community Innovations Scholars program, a collaboration between the UTSA School of Data Science and United Way of San Antonio and Bexar County, successfully concluded! This program offered 13 data science students a 10-week paid internship to gain real-world experience with local nonprofits. Students developed valuable skills in data analysis and career readiness while contributing to the nonprofits' missions. We are so proud of our first cohort of interns and can't wait for the upcoming years of this program!

What an inspiring morning with the United Way Emerging Leaders, networking and discussing career paths with Frost's CEO, Phil Green. Encouraging words from a leader in banking: Chase your passion, work hard at it and when considering career transitions, it's not all about the money. Grateful for Phil and his team at Frost. Want to share experiences like these? Connect with Glenn Revell and join United Way Emerging Leaders. It's your future; shape it how you dream it! #UnitedWay #EmergingLeaders #ProfessionalDevelopment #SanAntonio

With a heavy heart, we share the news of the passing of a beloved United Way volunteer, Mary Rose Brown. Her remarkable professional achievements, philanthropic endeavors and personal dedication to the community have left a lasting impact. Mary Rose's efforts significantly enhanced the quality of life for countless individuals in San Antonio, particularly through initiatives that empowered underserved communities. Her generosity knew no bounds and her willingness to lend a helping hand inspired us all. As a trusted and deeply involved volunteer, Mary Rose supported United Way's mission to create meaningful, lasting change in our city. She served on the United Way Board of Directors for many years and contributed her expertise to various United Way committees, including the Marketing, Resource Development and Strategic Planning Committees. Mary Rose was also a founding member of United Way's Women United, the largest women-led philanthropic group in the country, which empowers parents and children to thrive through quality childcare, mentorship and education. Let us not only mourn the loss of Mary Rose, but also celebrate her life by continuing her tradition of kindness and community service. Our thoughts and prayers are with Mary Rose's family and friends during this difficult time. Her enduring advocacy for change will continue to inspire and influence the lives of many for generations to come.
