United Way of Western Nebraska

In 1945 a small group of volunteer businessmen formed the Scottsbluff Community Chest, an independent fundraising association. Its purpose was to raise funds for ten prominent community charities. That year, the first campaign raised $26,359 which was distributed among those ten agencies.

Throughout the years, other agencies have joined our association. Agency names changed, agencies merged and some simply no longer exist. Today there are 19 member agencies, including one of the original agencies, Boy Scouts.

In the 2010 annual campaign, the United Way of Western Nebraska raised over $343,000. Since their humble beginning, the United Way of Western Nebraska has raised more than $8,097,317 to help those in need and in building a stronger, healthier and more compassionate community?..the United Way.
