📢 Volunteer Opportunity: Everyone Counts! Pima County Street Count Join us for the Point In Time (PIT) Count on Wednesday, January 29, 2025, from 6:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Think of it as a census for individuals experiencing homelessness in Pima County. This event, led by the Tucson Pima Collaboration to End Homelessness (TPCH), collects critical data required by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The information gathered provides a snapshot of homelessness in our community, helping to identify service gaps and plan effective programs. We need 300+ volunteers to meet people where they are—whether at bus stops, meal sites, vacant buildings, camps, or along sidewalks—to conduct surveys and gather this vital data. Your participation can help make a real impact on addressing homelessness in Pima County. 🔗 Sign up now: https://ow.ly/28fv50UzsK9 Let’s come together to show that Everyone Counts! #Tucson #Arizona #UnitedWay #VolunteerOpportunity #EndHomelessness

About us
Our Mission and Approach: United Way of Tucson responds to our community’s needs, transforms lives and brings long-lasting systemic change to our community by focusing on the underlying issues. We fight for education, financial wellness, equality and healthy communities for every person in Tucson and Southern Arizona. Our role as community convener enables us to serve more than 180,000 people each year by forming strategic partnerships, mobilizing the best resources and being the catalyst for needed, positive change. Our Vision: A community where every child receives a high-quality education from birth to career, every adult has the opportunity to thrive financially and, in the workplace, and every older person can retire and age with dignity and independence. Our History: This year we are proud to celebrate our 100 year anniversary, a century of service at United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona has taught us many things and one of the most critical is that this work is too important to do alone – we must take a united approach. And it is the past, specifically the past century of service, that United Way of Tucson and Southern Arizona celebrates today, for it was in 1922, established as the Community Chest of Tucson. After 100 years we are not only still here but we are engaging in more collaboratively driven work than ever in our community thanks to the generous volunteers, donors, board members, staff, and other stakeholders who have willingly, and ably, served through the years. Because of their dedication we have created stories of positive transformations in the lives of millions. Today we are proud to actively work with more than 80 non-profit agencies, surrounding cities and municipalities in three counties, dozens of local, regional, and national foundations, and hundreds of business and educational entities. Building a Thriving Community by Uniting People, Ideas, and Resources. #StrongerUnited #LiveUnited
