Although our walk was postponed to this year, the generosity and support received last year did not go unnoticed. Because of YOU, 43 families and 123 individuals received critical assistance with housing needs—including eviction and foreclosure prevention, security deposits, and first month’s rent.

Now, as we prepare to come together for this year’s rescheduled walk, we invite you to keep the momentum going! Every donation helps UCAP continue providing real support to real people in our community.

👟 Walk with us. Give with purpose. Make an impact.
Your support today can help another family find stability tomorrow.

Today, we join communities across our nation in remembering the lives lost on September 11, 2001, honoring the courage of first responders and everyday heroes, and reflecting on the strength found in unity.

At United Communities Against Poverty, we believe strong communities are built when we stand together, care for one another, and carry forward a spirit of compassion and service.

We remember. We honor. We stand together. Never forget. 🇺🇸
