211 is a critical part of United Way’s fight for the health, education and financial stability of every person in every community.
Hello!
When a crisis hits, having somewhere to turn is invaluable. For millions of people, that place is 211. You can make sure this vital service remains in place to help millions more.
In 2021, call specialists at 211 made 27.8 million connections to critical resources for people.
The average number of calls per day rose as high as 54,000.
32 states promoted 211 as the number to call for COVID-19 help and questions.
Last year the economic fall-out of the pandemic continued to hit people in our community—particularly people of color and those without a college degree—211 was there. Handing out hope from the first hello.
By supporting 211, you can be part of solving community problems and helping transform lives.
