In 2009, the United Way of Youngstown and the Mahoning Valley started Success By 6. It’s a pre-kindergarten readiness program geared toward children who need a boost before they officially start school. The students go through a four week summer program that prepares them for their academic careers but also focuses on their social/ emotional development. Success By 6 is offered in 19 school districts at 26 different sites across the Mahoning Valley. More than 5,000 students went through the program since 2009.

Join us and RISE UNITED in 2021! We are currently preparing out 2021 Campaign Materials for our Workplace Campaigns. Please check out our current campaign tool kit. We are in the process of updating it and it will be ready soon!

Success After 6 provides wrap-around services to help break down barriers many of the students and their families face on a daily basis. Our United Way works in partnership with the school to help the students achieve success. We help the students realize their potential and encourages them to excel in the classroom. We bring community partners to the table to best serve the children and their families.

Where there is a need in the Valley… Women Lead! Women United! is dedicated to working on United Way’s Early Education programs, specifically Success After 6.
