About Me


Our Mission: Improving Lives by Mobilizing the Caring Power of Our Community
Our Vision: To Become the Region's Leader in Coordinating Solutions to Human Needs and Promoting Civic Involvement
Rappahannock United Way is working to advance the common good by focusing on education, income and health. These are the building blocks to a good life: a quality education that leads to a stable job, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health.
Our goal is to create long-lasting changes that prevent problems from happening in the first place.
We invite you to be a part of that change. Together, united, we can inspire hope and create opportunities for a better tomorrow. That's what it means to LIVE UNITED.

COMMUNITY INITIATIVES

Earned Income Tax Credit Coalition

RUW leads the Fredericksburg Region EITC Coalition which was formed to help more low income individuals access the EITC. The coalition educates low income workers that they are eligible for the EITC and provides free tax preparation services at different sites within our community.

For more information on the Earned Income Tax Credit Coalition please visit:
EITC Information.

Health Coalition

RUW began a Health Coalition in order to improve access to quality healthcare services for uninsured and underinsured persons in the City of Fredericksburg and the counties of Caroline, King George, Spotsylvania, Stafford, and Westmoreland. The Health Coalition's main focus at this point is improving access to affordable prescription medications through the creation of a Community Pharmacy.
