Mission

THE ORGANIZATION'S MISSION IS TO UNITE PEOPLE, IDEAS, AND RESOURCES TO IMPROVE LIVES AND TO BUILD A STRONGER COMMUNITY IN GREATER PLYMOUTH COUNTY. THE ORGANIZATION ENVISIONS A SAFE, HEALTHY, DIVERSE, AND WELCOMING COMMUNITY WHERE EVERYONE'S NEEDS ARE MET EQUITABLY, RESPECTFULLY, AND COMPASSIONATELY.

Activities or mission (Part I)

TO UNITE PEOPLE, IDEAS, AND RESOURCES TO IMPROVE LIVES AND TO BUILD A STRONGER COMMUNITY.

  • COMMUNITY SERVICES AND FUNDING: COMMUNITY NEEDS & UWGPC ALLOCATION OF RESOURCES TO COMMUNITY PARTNERS ALLOCATIONS ARE AT THE HEART OF THE UNITED WAY MISSION. EACH YEAR, OUR UNITED WAY RELIES ON SIGNIFICANT FINANCIAL CONTRIBUTIONS FROM COMPANIES, FOUNDATIONS, AND INDIVIDUALS IN OUR COMMUNITY TO SUPPORT THE LIFE-SAVING WORK OF OUR COMMUNITY PARTNERS. IN ADDITION TO FINANCIAL RESOURCES, OUR ALLOCATION PROCESS ALSO RELIES ON OUR COMMUNITY'S "HUMAN" RESOURCES, OUR INCREDIBLE UNITED WAY VOLUNTEERS. THIS YEAR WE WERE FORTUNATE TO HAVE FORTY-SIX TALENTED AND INSIGHTFUL INDIVIDUALS VOLUNTEER FOR OUR TWELVE UNITED WAY ALLOCATION TEAMS. THE ALLOCATIONS PROCESS IS A DEMANDING ONE REQUIRING TIME AND FOCUS, BUT OUR VOLUNTEERS RESPONDED TO THE TASK AND FOUND IT REWARDING. VOLUNTEER TEAMS THEN CRITICALLY REVIEW THE WRITTEN REQUESTS FOR PROPOSALS (INCLUDING SITE VISITS FOR EACH INITIATIVE) AND QUANTITATIVELY SCORE THEM BASED UPON THEIR PERCEIVED EFFECTIVENESS AND IMPACT. WE IDENTIFIED FIVE LIVE UNITED FOCUS AREAS THIS YEAR FOR FUNDING:*FEEDING OUR FAMILIES *HOUSING & HOMELESSNESS*ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE HEALTH SERVICES*SUPPORT FOR CHILDREN & YOUTH*SUPPORT FOR JOB TRAINING & PLACEMENTWE ALSO HAVE AN OVERARCHING FOCUS AREA OF DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION. PANELISTS' SCORES ARE THEN PASSED ALONG TO THE VOLUNTEER COMMUNITY IMPACT COMMITTEE THAT HAS THE FORMIDABLE TASK OF GRANTING THE ALLOCABLE FUNDS TO AS MANY AGENCY INITIATIVES AS POSSIBLE. THE DISBURSEMENT PROCESS IS HANDLED AS EQUITABLY AS POSSIBLE. FORTY-THREE INITIATIVES AT TWENTY-SEVEN AGENCIES WERE FUNDED THIS YEAR IN OUR LIVE UNITED FOCUS AREAS. LOCAL CONSUMER PROGRAMS ARE NON-PROFIT OR GOVERNMENT AGENCIES THAT HANDLE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS IN THEIR OWN REGIONS OF THE STATE WHERE THEIR LOCAL KNOWLEDGE AND COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT ENABLE THEM TO PROVIDE EFFECTIVE ASSISTANCE TO CONSUMERS. OUR BROCKTON AREA LCP PROVIDES A BROAD ARRAY OF ASSISTANCE COVERING MOST CONSUMER ISSUES. THE MOST COMMON ISSUES HANDLED BY OUR LCP INCLUDE:*DEFECTIVE PRODUCTS; *CAR SALES AND FINANCING;*AUTO REPOSSESSION ISSUES; *DEBT COLLECTION;*MORTGAGE SERVICING AND LOAN MODIFICATION;*HOME IMPROVEMENT CONTRACT ISSUES;*BUSINESS CLOSURES; *UTILITY BILL DISPUTES; *SHUT OFF OF UN-REGULATED UTILITIES; AND *ISSUES SPECIFIC TO IMMIGRANTS, VETERANS, HOMELESS AND ELDER RESIDENTS.

THIS INCLUDES PROVIDING EVIDENCE-BASED AND EVIDENCE-INFORMED PARENTING PROGRAMS AND AN ARRAY OF DIRECT SERVICES FOR FAMILIES IN TIMES OF NEED OR TRANSITION.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Other IRS files

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 13 October 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
