Our Results

In the past five years, United Way has been a leader in forging meaningful partnerships to meet the critical needs in our service area.  And we are getting results. 

• We have leveraged $3.2 million in federal grants for housing issues through our work with the Greater Attleboro/Taunton Coalition on Homelessness.
• Incidences of tooth decay in Taunton schoolchildren have decreased since the Taunton Oral Health Collaborative began in 2000.
• We have made progress in removing the transportation barriers that kept children from attending afterschool programs, seniors from much-needed medical appointments, and working families from attending soup kitchens for a hot, nutritious meal.
