According to the 2015 Orange County Community Indicators report more residents in our county are living in poverty (higher than San Diego, Riverside and San Bernardino) all according to the California Poverty Measure which accounts for high housing costs.
United Way is committed to combating poverty in our community. In 2014 United Way established the following Income goal to reach by 2024: Cut the percentage of financially unstable Orange County Families by 25%
You can help accomplish this goal by volunteering to teach a financial literacy class to clients at SparkPoint a United Way program .
