For more than 85 years, United Way of Frederick County (UWFC) has fought for the health, education and financial stability of every person in our community. In Frederick County today, 37% of households struggle to afford basic household necessities. These households are one unexpected expense away from spiraling into poverty. The COVID-19 pandemic has had an enormous impact, financial and otherwise, on ALICE households. We are now more concerned than ever before about their future financial stability, but through our programming we provide these struggling households the opportunity to purchase their first home, a safe, reliable vehicle, maximize their tax returns, receive school supplies for their children, and more - all with the goal of helping them become financially stable.
