Join us for our Building Block Events
Building Block events are Butler County United Way's method of joining together with our neighbors throughout Butler County to give back in a way that will build a solid foundation for the future. Each Building Block Event is tailored to one of the building blocks for a good life: Youth Opportunity, Healthy Community, Financial Security, and Community Resilience.
