The commitment to building healthy communities starts with an understanding of what United Way funded programs at affiliate agencies do for community members, including businesses like yours and their employees. Take a tour yourself, set up a company tour and encourage employees to see for themselves, first hand what their donations support. On Days of Caring and throughout the year agencies are ready to use your help. Everything from board members to clerks are needed. Also, United Way's Labor Community Services provides counselor training.
Employees receive several weeks training in evening classes.
They learn about the extensive network of social services available in our community and how to refer fellow employees to appropriate services. When you and your organization give through United Way's Community Care to support local United Way affiliate agencies, you make a smart investment in our community. Agencies provide information, services, and opportunities that improve the quality of life and overall well-being for employees, customers and every member of our community.
