Take Action – Be the Change Our Community Needs
When neighbors come together, incredible things happen. Crossroads United Way gives you the opportunity to take action in ways that strengthen families, uplift youth, and build a healthier, more resilient community across Elkhart, LaGrange, Noble, and Steuben counties.
Taking action doesn’t always mean giving big—it means showing up, speaking up, and standing up for what matters. Every effort, no matter how small, helps create a stronger community where everyone can thrive.
Ways to Take Action
1. Advocate for Change
Your voice matters. Advocate for policies and initiatives that improve access to education, healthcare, and financial security. Use your influence to raise awareness and inspire others to take part in building better futures for all.
2. Lead a Workplace Campaign
Be a changemaker in your workplace! Start a United Way campaign to inspire your colleagues to give, volunteer, and make an impact together. We’ll provide the tools, resources, and support to make it easy and rewarding.
3. Host a Supply Drive or Fundraiser
Collect school supplies, hygiene products, or essential household goods for local families—or host a fun, community-driven fundraiser. Small efforts lead to big results when neighbors unite for good.
4. Share Our Story
Help us spread the word! Share Crossroads United Way’s mission, stories, and events on social media or within your organization. The more people know, the more lives we can impact—together.
