Creating Lasting Change Together
At United Way of Enid & Northwest Oklahoma, we believe it is not enough to simply feed a hungry family or protect a child from violence. Real and lasting change comes from addressing the conditions that create hunger, poverty, abuse, and instability in the first place. That’s why we unite people and organizations from every corner of our community—businesses, schools, nonprofits, faith groups, media, local government, and caring individuals. It takes all of us working together to create meaningful, measurable results.
We are committed to diversity, inclusion, and advancing the common good through a strategic focus on the building blocks of a stable, healthy, thriving life: education, financial stability, health, and basic needs. The ability to create positive change begins with a single act: your decision to give in a way that matters to you. Whether through donations, volunteer work, or lending your voice, your action becomes part of something much bigger. Combined with the efforts of your neighbors, your impact is multiplied across the entire region. Because of the generosity of our supporters, United Way is able to fund outcome-based programs and collaborative projects that meet core needs and deliver lasting, measurable change.
A Legacy of Service Since 1926 - United Way of Enid & Northwest Oklahoma has been saving lives, supporting families, and strengthening our community for nearly a century.
