The Town of Palm Beach United Way, previously known as the Palm Beach Community Chest, was founded in 1945 with the objective to raise and allocate funds to area charitable and philanthropic organizations. The first campaign raised $70,575 to support 13 nonprofit agencies in Palm Beach County. In the past 75 years the population of Palm Beach County has exploded from an estimated 100,000 in 1945 to more than 1.4 million today. Society has changed, needs have changed, but the Town of Palm Beach United Way has kept its mission of improving lives and building a stronger, healthier community for all residents. Over the years, our United Way has raised over $116 million to help those in Palm Beach County who need it the most.
