Crisis Response
United Way of the Alberta Capital Region acts quickly during community crises, mobilizing resources and rallying support where it's needed most. As a trusted leader, we leverage our extensive network of partners to identify urgent needs and emerging issues that impact communities long after the initial crisis has passed. We collaborate with local agencies to pinpoint high-need areas in the Capital Region, ensuring vital services reach our most vulnerable community members. Through 211 Alberta, we provide a critical lifeline connecting people to essential resources during emergencies. Together with our partners, we develop innovative solutions by mobilizing community support to address both immediate and long-term needs.
211 Alberta
211 has been a lifeline for those affected by the pandemic. 211 mobilized quickly to gather information and resources in the early days of the crisis and expanded services to meet needs of all Albertans.
Digital Equity
When classrooms closed, so did access to in-school supports such as All in for Youth. Many students were at risk of falling behind because they lacked technology to access online lessons. United Way distributed more than 1,500 computers so students could continue learning and connect with mental health and mentorship supports.
