SIGNATURE DRIVES

HELP MEET PRESSING NEEDS

Despite working hard, ALICE households are living paycheck to paycheck, unable to afford the basics of housing, food, child care, health care, technology, and transportation. Additionally, many local health and human service agencies are facing tough decisions as to how to meet the ever-growing need with shrinking resources.

 

Through our signature drives, you can make a profound difference in the lives of our struggling neighbors, friends, and families. United Way of Northern New Jersey’s drives offer a variety of opportunities throughout the communities we serve.  Get involved today!

MEET ALICE

ALICE   is an acronym for Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed, and represents the growing number of families who are unable to afford the basics of housing, food, child care, health care, technology, and transportation. These workers often struggle to keep their own households from financial ruin, while keeping our local economies running.
