United Way of Southeast Missouri fights for the health, education and financial stability of everyone in the counties we serve: Cape Girardeau, Scott, Perry, and Bollinger. What began as a community fund in 1954 became a United Way in 1970. In the last decade, we embraced the Community Impact model, evolving into an influential nonprofit leader identifying solutions and working with others to create change.
