The Town of Palm Beach United Way promotes and supports volunteerism to enhance the quality of life in Palm Beach County. People volunteer for a variety of reasons. Many feel compassion for those in need, some want to "give back," and others are passionate about the issues facing our community. Whatever your reasons, we can connect you with many great options to get involved that match your interests and location preferences.
