ABOUT US
United Way Trinidad and Tobago
OUR Commitment
COVID-19 is threatening to roll back our gains made in fighting poverty and is accentuating disparities in society. 2020 has required us all to think very differently and UWTT recognises that Change is here so that we can remain relevant for the fight ahead. Our Commitment is to go above and beyond to transform lives in the communities we serve and to ensure that resources entrusted to us are managed to the highest standards of accountability and integrity.
Our People
We are grateful to the dedication or our Board and the Board Committees. They provide the stewardship to ensure that our work results in improving lives every day all over the country.
