United Way of Greater McHenry County enhances the quality of life for those in need in local communities by facilitating access to resources.

The United Fund, or Community Chest, began back in 1966. The first meeting was held with community members on August 18, 1966, at Central Grade School in Crystal Lake and David J. Blahnik, President of the Crystal Lake Chamber of Commerce, presided. It was decided that during the week of October 24 that year, they would host a United Fund Drive in “an effort to eliminate many of the individual tag days and fund drives of the past because so many deserving organizations have fallen short of their goals.” They believed that a United Fund Drive would be more successful than individual drives, as well as demanding less time and effort on the part of volunteers. United Way of McHenry County emerged in 1978 from an organized United Way of Crystal Lake. It merged with the Cary Grove and Oakwood Hills United Ways in 1981. The reorganization and merger were both prompted by the realization that the two fundraising groups supported many of the same member agencies and that those agencies served people throughout McHenry County. Between 1984 and 1988 the campaign results grew three fold, establishing United Way of McHenry County as the fastest growing United Way of it’s size in the nation. In 1988, United Way raised over $1 million dollars for the first time ever. Shortly after, in 1991, United Way allocated over $1 million to member agencies. In 2009, the name changed to United Way of Greater McHenry County because the service area of United Way actually went outside the boundaries of the county into parts of Cook, Kane and Lake counties.
