Hello friends!

We are in need of a few good volunteers for two upcoming events:

On Thursday, September 10, we will be helping to close up Alpine Historical Park in Sutton for the winter. 4-6 volunteers are needed to move displays into storage, do a fall playground and pathway cleanup, and ready the historical buildings for winter.

On Saturday, September 26, Mat-Su VOAD will be at the 2026 Emergency Preparedness Expo! 6-8 volunteers are needed to help us distribute information on disaster and emergency readiness and assist with the event during the day.

Fill out our Volunteer Form and don't forget to check the box by the event you are able to attend!

We need YOU because YOU are United Way of Mat-Su!

We had a blast celebrating the hardworking employees at MTA during today’s Employee Appreciation Day.

These awesome challenge coins are a token of gratitude for the generous contributions made to our annual fundraising campaign by MTA employees.

Whether it’s choosing to support a local nonprofit from the very long list of our Mat-Su friends and partner organizations, or giving directly to UWMS, MTA employees are powering quality Education, amazing Youth Opportunities, strong Financial Independence and good Health and Wellness across the Valley.

Thank you, MTA, for your ongoing support!
