United Way of Allen County currently does not, and never has, provided funding for programs that provide abortion services.
UWAC invests in more than 80 programs and initiatives in our community and none of these organizations provide abortions, nor are there plans to fund organizations that engage in this practice.
UWAC recognizes that abortion is an issue that evokes strong emotions in our community. At the same time, the pro-choice / pro-life debate is a controversial and potentially divisive subject. It is essential that United Way not participate in this debate on issues of morality if it is to sustain the community consensus required to be effective. United Way can best serve Allen County if it is kept outside a pro-choice / pro-life debate.
