COVID-19 Pandemic Response 

At the outset of the COVID-19 pandemic, United Way Centraide Canada and our members nationwide leapt into action.

We knew the most vulnerable people across our country would be hit the hardest, so we immediately began advocating on behalf of local service agencies that support them. Together with our partners, stakeholders, and government funders, we worked hard to find solutions and offer support to those who needed it the most.
