About Lubbock Area United Way

Breaking Barriers since 1946.

Lubbock Area United Way advocates for smart public policy at the local, state, and federal levels. As part of the broader United Way network, we play a vital role in advancing opportunity and strengthening democracy, as well as in mobilizing the caring power of communities for the common good. With deep roots in our community — and an understanding of what households need most to thrive — Lubbock Area United Way has a strong voice with policymakers who are shaping our laws, policies, and governmental systems.

We advocate for opportunities for systemic change through policies enhancing youth opportunity, financial stability, healthy communities, and community resiliency.
