United Way of Greater Cleveland

?? A raise should be a step forward—not a setback. But for many, earning more means losing critical support like childcare, housing, and food assistance. ?? This "benefits cliff" keeps families from achieving financial independence, discourages career growth, and hurts our workforce. At United Way of Greater Cleveland, we’re advocating for policy changes and supporting workforce programs that help Greater Clevelanders navigate the transition to self-sufficiency. ?? Be part of the solution! ? Learn more: https://bit.ly/3QMsOvP ?? Donate: https://bit.ly/3QILnAZ ?? Share to spread awareness! #UnitedWayCLE #BenefitsCliff #EconomicMobility

???? March is National Nutrition Month! ???? At United Way of Greater Cleveland, we know that access to fresh, nutritious food is essential for a child’s health and success. Yet, nearly 21% of children in Cuyahoga County face food insecurity. We’re proud to support Food Strong and their Farm-to-School project with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District—bringing more fresh produce to students, hands-on nutrition education, and school gardens that provide locally sourced food for breakfast and lunch. ?? Your support makes this possible. Together, we’re building a healthier, stronger Cleveland—one meal at a time. ??? Watch the video to learn more! ??
