These well-regarded nonprofits in Dallas strive to help people and animals in need.

The mission of each organization varies and ranges from providing clothing to conserving wildlife around the world. If you would like to help, here are three nonprofits you can consider supporting from your home at our Uptown Dallas apartments:

Dress for Success

Dress for Success envisions a world where women do not live in poverty. The organization provides clients with professional attire to secure employment. It also offers programs that help women gain confidence and knowledge they can use while searching for a job. Dress for Success accepts online donations that produce a range of programs for women seeking financial independence.

United Way of Metropolitan Dallas

The United Way works to "strengthen education, income, and health." It inspires people from all backgrounds and ensures students graduate high school prepared for success at college or on the job. Donated funds stay right here in North Texas. Your donation will help support programs such as Team Recess, First Five, and Dollars for College.

Dallas Zoo

Managed by the nonprofit Dallas Zoological Society, the Dallas Zoo is passionate about saving animals worldwide. The zoo began from humble beginnings in 1888. Today, it's home to over 2,000 animals, and more than one million visitors walk through the gates every year. There are several ways to offer help, including adopting an animal. The program helps support the zoo's participation in Species Survival Plans, critical to the survival of endangered and threatened animal species.
