Like our South County Community has always done in times of crisis, we can again rise to the challenge, supporting the most vulnerable among us.

As events are cancelled, sales plummet, and businesses shutter, South County residents face sudden economic challenges. Workers are losing wages and tips. Kids are missing school lunches. Parents must choose between expensive day care or skipping work. For more than 55 years, United Way of South Sarasota County has stepped up when the community needs us. Now, we recognize a looming crisis, growing alongside the one in health care. We expect community resources to be inundated.   That's why UWSSC has created the COVID-19 Fund, to shore up emergency-relief programs, and other community resources that will be strained in the coming weeks and months.   Our COVID-19 Fund will support South County residents who are struggling in the economic fallout from the pandemic. We ask that you join us in our efforts and make a donation today.    All funds raised stay in South County (Venice, Nokomis, North Port, Englewood, Osprey, Laurel)
