United Way of Treasure Valley

09/07/2026

This Labor Day, we celebrate the people whose work keeps our communities moving forward.

From classrooms and construction sites to hospitals, small businesses, farms, nonprofits and everywhere in between, working people help make the Treasure Valley and communities across Idaho stronger.

Today, we recognize their contributions—and the dignity, dedication and value of work in all its forms.

Hispanic Heritage Month is a time to celebrate the cultures, histories, stories and contributions of Hispanic and Latino communities across the country.

Here in the Treasure Valley and throughout Idaho, those contributions are woven into the places we live, work and call home—from our classrooms and workplaces to local businesses, neighborhoods and community organizations.

This month, and always, we celebrate the people, traditions and stories that continue to shape and strengthen our communities.

Now THAT is how you kick off a campaign! 🎉

Last night, 150+ Scheels employees came together (after closing shift!) to launch their first-ever Idaho United Way campaign and officially kick off our workplace campaign season.

We’re so excited to have this team joining workplaces across the Treasure Valley in creating greater opportunity for kids and families in our community.

Want your workplace to be part of it, too? Let’s make it happen!

August is National Make-A-Will Month, a perfect time to create or update your estate plan. A will is one of the most meaningful ways to protect the people you love, reflect the values that matter most to you, and plan for the future.

Through our partnership with FreeWill, you can create your will online at no cost and make a plan for the people and causes you love. Jeanette recently included United Way of Treasure Valley in her will because, "I know the resources will be put to good use." When you include United Way of Treasure Valley in your plans, your legacy becomes an investment in Idaho's future—helping families thrive, children succeed in school, and communities grow stronger and healthier for generations to come.

You can start your will today at partner.freewill.com/unitedway

Because the greatest legacy we can create is an Idaho where every child, every family, and every community has the opportunity to thrive. As Jeanette so beautifully puts it, "The joy of seeing your community blossom around you is worth so much. Healthy communities are more fun!"
