Who We Are
We are your neighbors, your family, and friends. Mojave Valley United Way is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that was founded by a few local people just like you who wanted to make a difference in the Barstow Area. Today, the Executive Director and the volunteer Board of Directors work to promote education, health, and economic stability in our community by utilizing the giving power of the people and businesses who live and function in the Barstow Area. Each member of our team is dedicated to serving the people who live here and offer a wealth of knowledge and experience to their posts. We are eager to help, happy to serve, and fighting to Live United.
