Financial Stability

Monadnock United Way fights for financial stability

It is no secret that wages have not kept pace with the rising costs of housing, healthcare and education. Our region is losing high-paying jobs and our wages are the second lowest in the state.

Monadnock United Way supports — through leadership and funding — community programs and collaborations that support financial stability for individuals and families across our region.

We also support community-wide programs such as 2-1-1, My Free Taxes, and SingleCare to help those in need get through tough times.
