Be a hero

GenNext table at the Rat Race

In the real world, being a hero isn’t about leaping tall buildings or flying faster than a speeding bullet. Ultimately, it’s about taking the time to think about others and working together toward a common good. By supporting United Way through your participation in this year’s Great Neighbourhood Race, you’re showing your heart and proving that, together, we can make a difference. Through the pledges you raise and the time you’ll take during the race to learn more about the work United Way does, you’ll be adding to the greatness of this city.

Our vision is a Toronto where all of our neighbourhoods are healthy, vibrant places to work, live, and raise a family; where our young people all get the best start in life with opportunities for every success; and where newcomers to our city fulfill the promise of their new life in Canada.

With your help, United Way brings together volunteers, social service experts, community leaders and financial resources to build a better future for all. We support over 200 non-profit agencies in Toronto that are on the forefront of change.
