United Way in Southern Litchfield County

United Way in Southern Litchfield County works within the towns of Bridgewater, Kent, New Milford, Roxbury, Sherman, Warren and Washington.

To have the most effective long-term impact within these towns, United Way invests in local programs making a measurable difference, and convenes the community to bring action to local issues.  United Way of Western Connecticut focuses on the most pressing needs in our communities and provides the resources -- human, financial and technical -- to get to the heart of problems.
