What we aim to solve
The communities that United Way of Butte and Anaconda serve have 15.5% (5,355) of our citizens in Butte-Silver Bow existing at the poverty level or below and 20.8% (1,900) in Anaconda-Deer Lodge. We have seen a pull back on governmental support for a number of our citizens and non-profit agencies have had a number of grants not renewed. A number of businesses that employ unskilled labor have also cut back. Our donations help support fourteen-sixteen non-profit agencies annually. The 2016 median househld income figure for our area is $39,356, Of those served through the efforts of United Way of Butte and Anaconda and our partner agencies 77% exist at or below the poverty level. Another 12.26% are in the 51-80% range. For some of these agencies we are the sole source for funding. For others we fund supplemental programs that enhance their programs but are not covered by grants and governmental support.
