United Way Suncoast

Businesses and nonprofits preparing for a disaster are often told to review what their insurance covers. But do they know how to look for what the policies don’t cover? At Beyond The Storm, United Way Suncoast’s Business Continuity Workshops, we’ll show you how to check for gaps in coverage. Sign up through our disaster resiliency page and Get Storm Ready.

🎓 It’s graduation season—and we’re celebrating some of our youngest learners!

We were proud to recognize 44 VPK graduates at Children’s Choice Academy, celebrating this exciting milestone with each student. From picking out a free book to creating colorful keepsakes, it was a day full of joy, creativity, and accomplishment.

Each graduate also received a backpack filled with educational tools to support continued learning at home—because at United Way Suncoast, we believe learning doesn’t stop when school ends.

As we head into summer, we remain committed to helping children stay engaged, build skills, and thrive through every stage of their educational journey.

Many organizations think disaster planning starts with protecting a building. It doesn't. It starts with critical factors including your people. Sometimes the biggest risk isn't the story itself, it's not knowing what comes next.

At our business continuity workshops, you will learn all the critical aspects of disaster planning and why you need to protect so much more than your physical structure.

This Memorial Day, we take a moment to honor and remember…

The brave individuals who served our country and made profound sacrifices to protect our freedoms. Their legacy inspires us to keep showing up for our communities and for each other.

Today, as we reflect, let’s also commit to giving back and creating positive change. United Way Suncoast is honored to work alongside you to build a stronger, more resilient community for all.

United Way Suncoast's Advocacy In Action served up anecdotes, encouragement and inspiration Thursday evening at the Tampa Club. Hosted by our Women United affinity group, the event made clear that more people -- and especially women -- should step into the public policy arena with passion and purpose. Kudos to former Tampa Bay Times Columnist Sue Carlton, Pinellas County School Board Chair Laura Hine, Palmetto City Councilwoman Sunshine Joiner and Tampa City Councilwoman Naya Young for lifting us up. United Is The Way.

Financial empowerment takes more than information — it takes collaboration.

Leaders from across the Suncoast region gathered at the Bank On Financial Empowerment Summit to discuss how we can expand access to safe, affordable financial resources and remove barriers preventing families from achieving long-term stability.

From workforce development and banking access to youth engagement and policy solutions, one message was clear: we cannot do this work alone.

Thank you to all of our speakers, panelists, partners and attendees who joined us in these important conversations about building stronger financial futures for our communities.
