To achieve our goals, we are re-designing how we do what we do and we will engage a broader representation of the community. As all successful businesses do, we are implementing "best practices" we have reviewed from other successful UWs around the country. We will continue our own "best practices" that have gotten us to where we are today, but you will be seeing some new outreach from us…all with the sole purpose of raising more dollars to help more people.

We have successfully sought new, younger leadership to join the experienced volunteers to benefit from their fresh ideas and untapped energies.

Achieving these goals will enable United Way to maximize funding available to our highly-valued Community Investment process for annual funding to our member agencies, and…

At the same time double and re-double our new Emerging Needs Grant program enabling the community to access more immediate funding to direct toward unmet needs and new efforts to address critical issues.
