Many know that United Way vets funded partner agencies once every three years. It’s quite a big undertaking and always proves to be eye-opening. It’s an opportunity for members of the Community Investment Committee, United Way staff, and the Board of Directors to learn more about the specific programs applying for support.

Once applications for funding have been received and reviewed, a determination is made based on goals and projected outcomes of the particular program. Outcomes are extremely important and are reviewed on a regular basis by the committee to determine if they are on target. Recently, our committee worked to streamline the outcomes reporting process which we felt was a critical component to continue receiving accurate program data.
