Marshfield Area United Way knows that some of our most vulnerable individuals are at risk and having to make changes due to COVID-19.

United Way is launching the COVID-19 Response Fund to assist United Way partner programs and other 501(c)3 non-profits who remain open during this time to better serve clients.

The United Way COVID-19 Response Fund will assist with grants to fill gaps and help cover added expenses as it relates to serving community members during this time. Funds may be used to cover additional food for emergency food boxes, cleaning or hygiene supplies for shelters, additional staff time for those continuing to provide assistance to individuals, or any other needs that may arise following the state of emergency.

To make a donation to the fund please visit marshfielareaunitedway.org or send donations by mail to: Marshfield Area United Way, ATTN: COVID-19 Response Fund, PO Box 771, Marshfield, WI 54449

COVID-19 is affecting our community in a variety of ways and we encourage you to stay up to date on changes with programs and community services by calling 2-1-1 or visiting our website, marshfieldareaunitedway.org.

You can also visit our Facebook page, Marshfield Area United Way.

In response to COVID-19 and in an effort to minimize the spread of the virus in our community, all Marshfield Area United Way meetings, trainings and activities through May 1, 2020 will be rescheduled or are cancelled.
