Believe that together we can make a difference in our community.

Hi, my name is Victoria.

After my father passed away, I became vulnerable and fell into a verbally and emotionally abusive relationship. My self esteem was slowly stripped, my spirit broken. After I left the relationship, a friend introduced me to Halton Family Services, a UWO funded agency, where my son and I received counseling. They gave my son and I a second chance at life.

My journey has inspired me to help others. I run the United Way campaign at my office to ensure that help will be there for others. I encourage you to donate; your donation can change the life of someone like me!

Believing in myself and others is how I LIVE UNITED.

Inspire others through your actions as a donor or volunteer.

Hi, my name is Chris and this is my family.

I believe it is important to LIVE UNITED to create a better community for every family in Oakville. I LIVE UNITED by donating through my workplace campaign, as well as volunteering at United Way of Oakville.

Volunteering with United Way has allowed me to develop and improve many skills such as teamwork, leadership and public speaking. I have met some incredible people along the way and look forward to meeting many more.

I encourage you to join me and LIVE UNITED. Together we can make Oakville an even better place to live and work!

Inspiring others is how I LIVE UNITED.

Believe that together we can make a difference in our community.

My name is Don Pangman.

My family and I moved to this wonderful community 35 years ago. Oakville has seen dramatic changes over that period and we have always embraced them. We are truly fortunate to live here. But what hasn't changed are the "pockets" of despair, quite possibly on every block, something going on behind closed doors, perhaps a loss of a job, drug or physical abuse, or a sudden downward spiral in health.  What has changed is the demand for services. We have agencies that are well prepared to address each and every need, but it simply cannot happen without our financial resources.

I LIVE UNITED by recognizing how lucky we are, and how we can share our good fortune with the vulnerable, who might even turn out to be a neighbour.
