United Way of Northwest Louisiana is a nonprofit, 501(c)3 agency that fights for the health, education, financial stability, and essential needs of every person in every community. We partner with local nonprofits, businesses, government, and social service agencies to address our community’s most pressing needs. Our goals address poverty’s root causes on multiple fronts, and we measure our impact and success each year in our Annual Community Report.
United Way serves ten parishes in Northwest Louisiana including Bienville, Bossier, Caddo, Claiborne, DeSoto, Natchitoches, Red River, Sabine, Webster, and Winn. During specific local disaster-relief situations, we also work in partnership with United Ways across Louisiana to ensure that immediate help is coordinated and effective.
