United Way's Commitment to You

WE CARE
We care about this community. Our staff and volunteers live and work in this community. We put our hearts and hands into making this community a better place in which to live. This year, United Way agencies will provide 100,000 services for children, teenagers, and adults in our area.

WE ARE EFFECTIVE
Before receiving a penny of your gift, agencies and programs must prove they provide a vital service that will help solve local problems. We answer to you that your money gets results.

WE ARE ACCOUNTABLE
Volunteers representing all walks of life review budgets and interview agencies tomake sure your contributions are spent on what really matters-improving lives. They monitor annually how well those programs are maximizing your gift to solve local problems and serve human needs.

WE ARE EFFICIENT
Your local United Way invests more that 89 percent of your gift back into the community-higher percentage than most nonprofits nationwide. That means we put your money where you intended it to go-where it will help people and do the most good.

WE ARE LOCAL
You contributions stay local. We focus our resources and services to address needs important to people who live and work where you live, and help the people who need it most.
