The United Way of Beaver County (UWBC) is thrilled to announce that $70,000 in grants have been awarded from The ALICE Fund to twelve Beaver County non-profit organizations serving ALICE (Asset Limited, Income Restrained, Employed) and those in poverty.

Through the mini-grants, the UWBC is helping to fund the following organizations and programs:

The United Way of Beaver County (UWBC) and Shell Polymers, Monaca (Shell) is thrilled to announce that Shell has offered an additional $25,000 matching grant to the UWBC’s ALICE Fund! Shell gave a $50,000 Matching Grant toward The ALICE Fund in late 2023 – as of today, this initial $50,000 grant has been fully matched by companies and organizations in Beavery County.

The first ever United Way of Beaver County Purse Bingo, presented by Range Resources, was a huge success. Approximately 120 guests filled the room at Monaca Turners hoping to win one of the 14 beautiful designer purses that were slated as Bingo prizes. But even if an attendee didn’t win at Bingo, there were many other ways to go home with a new or “new to you” purse at this event. Attendees had chances to win at the Rubber Ducky Reverse Raffle table, the raffle basket table, the Card Game table, and they could bid on purses in the Silent Auction.

Despite leadership transitions, the United Way of Beaver County (UWBC) has far exceeded its preset goal of $850,000, reaching a milestone of just over a million dollars that can now be used to further the common good in Beaver County Communities. The UWBC Board Treasurer unveiled the 2022/2023 Annual Campaign amount of $1,040,380 at the Recognition Dinner held on June 14th at Seven Oaks Country Club. The announcement received a standing ovation from individual donors, local companies, United Way member agencies, and the 200+ supporters in attendance who contributed to the campaign.
