Why we care
Age, ethnicity, culture, religion, sexual orientation, abilities, values and beliefs—these are just some of the many differences that make up the very fabric of our vibrant region.
Diversity and inclusion are fundamental to everything United Way East Ontario does—our work, our relationships, our actions, and our language. And even though it’s complex, at the end of the day, it’s about dignity, empathy, respect, and the right to feel comfortable in your own skin.
We believe everyone deserves to be themselves and have the chance to be heard, included, and supported.
