United Way relies on volunteers from the community in every aspect of our operation. Whether you are looking to help your community, build professional networks, or learn new skills we welcome you with open arms.
Volunteering for United Way is a rewarding experience and you are encouraged to participate. For more information and volunteer opportunities, please contact us.
Some of the volunteer opportunities are as follows:
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors consists of 13 volunteers, reflecting the diversity
of our community. They meet regularly to direct the United Way's operations.
Campaign Cabinet
Each year, 13 volunteers accept the responsibility of developing plans to raise the maximum amount of money during Campaign time. This team recruits additional volunteers as Account Executives who call on companies to solicit support for employee campaigns, corporate giving, and work place volunteers.
Allocations Committee
Members of the Allocations Committee visit each member agency to assess its need for United Way funding. The Committee then meets to review the funding requests and decide how much money to allocate to each program.
Office Help
The success of the United Way hinges on turning the maximum amount of money raised back into the community. To do this, the United Way relies on volunteer help in it's daily operations to keep overhead cost low. It you are looking to improve your office skills or just have some time to spare, give us a call at (519) 426-5660 or
