  • Centraide United Way Canada est une organisation philanthropique au Canada, reconnue comme une fondation publique, visant à rassembler des ressources humaines et financières en vue de lutter contre la pauvreté, briser l'exclusion sociale, diminuer les inégalités et prévenir des problèmes sociaux. En 2022, le mouvement Centraide United Way comptait 71 Centraide United Way locaux servant plus de 5 000 collectivités canadiennes soit 8 en Alberta, 4 en Colombie-Britannique, 1 à l'Île-du-Prince-Édouard, 4 au Manitoba, 3 au Nouveau-Brunswick, 6 en Nouvelle-Écosse, 27 en Ontario, 11 au Québec et 4 en Saskatchewan, 1 à Terre-Neuve-Et-Labrador, 1 dans les Territoires du Nord-Ouest et 1 au Yukon . Ceux-ci appuient un vaste réseau de 1 800 organismes et projets communautaires qui viennent en aide à 1,3 million de personnes vulnérables . Les Centraide du Québec sont tous membres de Centraide United Way Canada. Dans le reste du Canada, les organisations membres de Centraide Canada se nomment United Way, ou United Way Centraide dans certaines régions de l'Ontario et du Nouveau-Brunswick. Les Centraide sont des fondations publiques enregistrées et des organisations parapluies en ce sens qu'elles n'œuvrent pas à une seule cause mais plutôt qu'elles soutiennent plusieurs causes sociales. Ainsi, généralement, les Centraide soutiennent par exemple la réussite scolaire par de l'aide aux devoirs, la sécurité alimentaire par les banques alimentaires et les cuisines collectives, l'autonomie des personnes par de nombreux groupes d'entraide. Centraide intervient en santé mentale, auprès des personnes handicapées, dans l'accompagnement des personnes aux prises avec des difficultés importantes de leur vie, préviennent les abus faits aux femmes, renforcent les capacités des familles et des jeunes, etc. (fr)
  • United Way Centraide Canada (French: Centraide United Way Canada) is the national organization for the 71 autonomous, volunteer-based United Ways and Centraides across Canada. The United Way Movement in Canada is a federated network of local United Way offices serving more than 5,000 communities across Canada, each registered as its own nonprofit organization and governed by an independent volunteer-led local Board of Directors. Each United Way works locally to raise funds and invest in improving lives in its community. In French, both in Quebec and across Canada, the organization is known as Centraide. The organization often uses the United Way and Centraide names together, recognizing the bilingual nature of the country's culture and people. United Way Centraide Canada is the national office and has a distinct role to provide leadership, guidance and support to local United Ways across the country. Together, local United Ways and United Way Centraide Canada form the United Way Movement. United Way Centraide's work focuses on three key strategies that create opportunities for everyone in our communities – moving people from poverty to possibility, helping kids be all they can be, and building strong and healthy communities.
