    strong supportive families
    Each year Community Kitchens guides 60 families toward the skills they need to shop for and cook nutritious meals. Kitchens are tailored for families, seniors and youth. This United Way supports Community Kitchens to provide services in Vernon, Enderby and Salmon Arm.
  • Because of United Way...
    engaged youth
    United Way supports Whitevalley Community Resource Centre's Community Pride program for youth. Over 30 community youth participated in Community Pride with each youth providing up to forty hours of their time. Over 15 community events, projects and weekly work opportunities were filled by local youth who gained valuable social, work, communication, life and employment skills allowing them to better prepare themselves to enter the labor market. Youth gain pride in their community and the community comes to value their youth.
  • Because of United Way...
    healthy, successful children
    With support from United Way; Enderby Family Place had 2,211 visits last year to a program for parents of 0-6 year olds where they can get information on services and programs available for them and their pre-schoolers. They are also provided with a hot, nutritious lunch - all free of charge. This program has significantly improved the school readiness of Enderby's children over the past three years.
