How We Accomplish Our Mission

  • Provide leadership and encourage cooperation among private, public, and religious organizations offering human care services.

 

  • Provide a structure to periodically assess the county’s current and emerging human care needs.

 

  • Plan, organize, and implement a fund-raising program to support selected human care services.

 

  • Allocate funds in the most efficient manner and evaluate the effectiveness of their use.

Equity Statement

We recognize structural racism and other forms of oppression have contributed to persistent disparities which United Way seeks to dismantle. Our United Way network strives to engage community members, especially those whose voices have traditionally been marginalized. We work with residents and public and private partners to co-create solutions that ensure everyone has the resources, support, opportunities, and networks they need to thrive. We commit to leveraging all of our assets (convening, strategic investments, awareness building, advocacy) to create more equitable communities.
