Look for your census questionnaire in the mail this week! Completing the census is easy, important and confidential.
The United States Census, conducted every 10 years, determines our representation in the U.S. House of Representatives and guides federal allocations to our area. But, census data also helps United Way of Greater Houston make important decisions about our community.
We Believe in Neighbors Helping Neighbors
Job loss. Abuse by a spouse. Facing up to an addiction. Losing everything in a fire. These are the kinds of everyday crises that catch us off guard. And, they are often too big to be handled alone. United Way of Greater Houston is working to make sure everyone is given a second chance to rebuild.
Addressing Homelessness - the United Way
Reports show that Houston's economy is faring better than that of many other cities, but even so, many of our neighbors are struggling with the basics of life. An estimated 12,000 to 14,000 people are homeless on Houston streets every night.
United Way of Greater Houston is working to make sure everyone in our community has the opportunity to build a better future.
