Your dollars stay local, so you know you’re making an impact right here at home.
Every United Way is both independent and autonomous.
That means the people who decide how to invest your dollars are community residents. Our United Way Board of Directors is comprised of local individuals who care deeply about their family, friends, and neighbors. The funds raised stay local to benefit our community today and strengthen it for tomorrow.
Public Reporting
Form 990 is the IRS' primary tool for gathering information about tax-exempt organizations, educating organizations about tax law requirements, and promoting compliance. Organizations also use Form 990 to share information about their programs with the public.
At our United Way, the fiscal year begins on July 1 and ends on June 30. Because the fiscal year straddles two different calendar years, the calendar year and fiscal year will not always match. For example, Fiscal Year 2022 runs from July 1, 2021 – to June 30, 2022.

Charity Navigator rates charities by evaluating Financial Health and Accountability & Transparency. Their ratings show donors how efficiently a charity will use their support, how well it has sustained its programs and services over time, and their level of commitment to accountability and transparency. We have a four-star charity rating based on their review of our organization.
