UWCHQ Strategic Impact Areas

United Way maintains the highest standards of professionalism, accountability and transparency in our stewardship of contributor dollars and financial management. Internal control procedures include a rigid system of checks and balances that prevents the same individuals from handling transactions in isolation and deters questionable activities.

As good stewards of your donations, it is our commitment at the United Way to require funded programs to report within an apportioned timeline to assess and evaluate current successes and challenges to meet our community's most pressing needs.
