More Than 50 Years of Community Service

 

United Way of Whatcom County is helping people in your community. However you choose to give, your money stays in Whatcom County, making a positive difference in  individual lives right in your own neighborhood.

When you think about United Way of Whatcom County, what comes to mind? For lots of folks, the answer is fundraising. There’s a good reason for that. Through the 2008
campaign, United Way of Whatcom County raised over $2 million in support of the community.

So, it’s true that United Way Of Whatcom County raises money for emergency
food and shelter, child-abuse and neglect prevention, youth character development, and many other services provided by 32 partner agencies and nonprofits with more than 50 programs in Whatcom County.

But it takes more than money to build a community. It takes people. With your help, United Way has the unique ability, individually and collectively, to achieve broad civic goals that no single donor, citizen, nonprofit or charity could accomplish alone. Dedicated community
volunteers provide the leadership. Caring partner agency staff members provide the support. It’s a winning combination that allows United Way of Whatcom County to:


    * assess needs
    * strengthen agencies and nonprofits
    * encourage volunteerism
    * create a culture of giving
    * build community
    * encourage philanthropy
