To accomplish our mission, United Way of Brevard coordinates an annual fundraising campaign and strategically distributes funds to local programs based on the potential return on investment and quantifiable results. Last year alone, 284 local businesses and 23,907 employees and individuals supported United Way.

YOUR INVESTMENT INSPIRES US TO
GO BEYOND
“WHAT IS”
AND STRIVE FOR WHAT OUR COMMUNITY CAN AND SHOULD BE Our goal is to create long-lasting changes by addressing community problems. To do that, we must look ‘upstream’ at what it takes to ensure our friends and neighbors have the foundation to create a successful life for themselves and their families. That’s why our work focuses on the building blocks of a good life – Education, Income and Health. Our community wins when kids succeed in school, adults can secure a good job, manage their finances, and provide a healthy environment for their families. Together, through United Way, the contributions of thousands of individual donors become a force for change in the community. We can inspire hope and create opportunities for a better tomorrow.

myON is the world’s largest interactive digital library. After it was successfully introduced by United Way, Brevard Public Schools expanded the program to nearly all Title 1 elementary schools.
QUALITY EDUCATION IS THE CORNERSTONE OF OUR NEW STRATEGIC DIRECTION. R ES EA R C H S H OWS
In 2014-2015, over 20,000 Brevard students read more than 200,000 digital books.
MENTORING PROGRAM There are over 150 United Way reading mentors at nine local elementary schools serving as positive role models for our at-risk youth. That’s 120 more volunteers than last year!
A strong educational foundation leads to even better employment opportunities and an increasingly competitive workforce. Higher educational attainment is a direct corollary to higher income, better health and a host of other factors that make individuals and communities more productive.
SUMMER READING LOSS PREVENTION United Way, in partnership with Brevard Public Schools, launched the second successful year of a community-wide awareness campaign to keep kids reading over the summer.
1. myON summer reading winners celebrated.
United Way’s educational strategies include greater access to books, expanding reading mentoring and reducing summer learning loss.
2. Did you know in Brevard 4,700 students missed more than 21 days of school last year? That’s why we gave students at Emma Jewel alarm clocks to help them get up and get the day started off right. 3. Kids have 24/7 unlimited, anytime, anywhere access to books on myON. 4. Space Florida volunteered to read to kids at United Way’s Feed and Read site. 5. As part of a summer reading contest, 1,737 students at 59 elementary schools read and celebrated with ice cream parties.
