About Us
Western Union helps people and businesses move money for better—better communities, better economies, and a better world.
Our Mission
We believe that when money moves freely, good things happen. A business grows. A child goes to college. Emergency aid goes where it’s needed.
We help people move their money to make good things happen.
What we value
From our earliest beginnings, Western Union has put technology to work connecting people. As technology has advanced, so have we—but always with our focus on connecting people with the places and loved ones that matter most to them, in good times and bad.
WU Foundation
