BRANCH OF PHILANTHROPY
Town of Palm Beach United Way Inc.
The Town of Palm Beach United Way, previously known as the Palm Beach Community Chest, was founded in March 1945 with the objective to raise and allocate funds to area charitable and philanthropic organizations. Founded by a group of civic leaders on the island of Palm Beach felt their fundraising efforts would be more effective if they separated from the Community Chest of the Palm Beaches. They decided to establish an organization of their own, operated entirely within Palm Beach, under the sole direction of Palm Beach residents.
Our mission is to create long-lasting and measurable changes that improve lives and build strong communities throughout Palm Beach County by ensuring everyone has access to the building blocks for a good quality of life: education, health and financial stability. We envision a world where all individuals and families achieve their full potential.
