Foothills United Way Focus on: Community Basics

Foothills United Way's emphasis on Community Basics supports helping to meet basic needs of people, with the expected outcome of stabilizing lives with through a safety net of critical services.

Before families and individuals at risk can begin to make changes for the better, certain basic needs must be met. Everyone should have enough food to eat, safe shelter, clothing, and be safe from harm. Foothills United Way supports programs in Boulder and Broomfield Counties that provide these basic services, so that those at risk can then take advantage of other opportunites to improve their quality of life.
