Healthy Community: Promoting Wellness for All
Healthier People, Stronger Communities
At United Way of Northern Cameron County, our mission is rooted in the belief that community wellness is essential for a thriving and resilient society. When individuals and families have access to the health resources they need, everyone benefits—physically, emotionally, and economically.
That’s why we focus on promoting healthy communities through preventative care, education, and inclusive health initiatives. By removing barriers and offering support, we empower people of all ages to take control of their health and build a better future.
What We Do to Promote Community Wellness
We support initiatives that encourage healthy lifestyles, early detection, and community engagement. Our current programs include:
✅ Free Liver Screenings
These screenings provide vital early detection for liver-related health concerns. By offering them at no cost to participants, we help individuals take control of their health and access follow-up care if needed.
🏃♂️ United We Run 5K
Our annual 5K brings the community together to raise awareness 
about health and wellness. It’s more than just a run—it’s a celebration of movement, connection, and community spirit. Participants of all ages and fitness levels come together to take action for their health and support our local wellness programs.
Why Community Wellness Matters
When people are healthy, they’re more likely to thrive in other areas of life—at school, at work, and at home. But too many individuals lack access to basic preventative care and health education. Through our initiatives, we’re bridging the gap and creating opportunities for everyone to lead a healthier life.
