What is United Way of the Midlands?
United Way of the Midlands has been a community cornerstone for nearly a century. Dedicated to promoting inclusivity, social justice, and well-being, its holistic approach to community support spans four focus areas: Healthy Community, Youth Opportunity, Financial Security, and Community Resiliency.
Through initiatives like JAG Nebraska and the 211 Helpline, the organization provides a strong support network for underserved individuals and families, working tirelessly to support those in need.
Last year, approximately 850 organizations contributed to United Way of the Midlands, donating their time and talents to help create change and provide community support. At their Annual Meeting, United Way of the Midlands announced its 2024 Campaign Partner Award winners, recognizing businesses that went above and beyond to support the organization throughout the year.
They bestowed five Corporate Partner of the Year awards (presented to companies within four different employee-size categories), the New Business Partner of the Year award, two Volunteer Organization of the Year awards, and a Corporate Partner of the Year—Leadership Donors award.
In total, nine organizations were honored at the Annual Meeting, and WP Engine is proud to be counted among them.
WP Engine’s contribution and award
United Way of the Midlands recognized WP Engine for contributing something that’s often difficult for nonprofits to obtain: Functional, affordable space to grow.
Earlier this year, WP Engine sublet a portion of our Omaha office space on the fourth floor of the Ashton building in Millwork Commons to United Way of the Midlands—complete with furnishings and technology—at the cost of just $1.
This in-kind support allowed United Way to quickly establish operations in a vibrant, functional coworking environment, empowering them to expand staffing and enhance program capacity.
The new office space is also large enough to host meetings and events for other nonprofits, contributing to the collaborative nature of both the Millwork Commons community and the United Way of the Midlands.
WP Engine’s donation of this much-needed space illustrates our core value, Committed to Give Back. It will allow United Way of the Midlands to continue to grow and foster community support in Nebraska.
Powering the freedom to create community
Our team is deeply honored by this recognition and excited to continue supporting United Way in its mission to create positive, lasting change in Nebraska and beyond.
