Mission Statement:
The mission of the Callaway County United Way is to improve, consistently
and measurably, the quality of life for all the people of Callaway County by
raising and distributing funds, mobilizing community resources, and
encouraging innovative solutions to the community's health and human service
needs.
WHAT IS COMMUNITY IMPACT?
Your United Way is accountable.
The Callaway County United Way
meets or exceeds all IRS requirements and United Way of America
standards. We work hard each year to ensure that we are fully
accountable and transparent to our donors, funded agencies and
partners.
Your United Way helps build a
strong and healthy community.
The Callaway County United Way
makes sure your donation is well spent. Our all volunteer board
works on a year-round basis to ascertain community needs and evaluates
the programs and services offered by the thirteen agencies we fund.
Only you, and thousands of good citizens like you, can help us to
succeed. Think of all these human care services as insurance
benefits - here when you need them.
Why give to the United Way?
The United Way campaign is the
most effective and economical way to support hundreds of social, health
and human service programs in Callaway County. The quality of life that
you, your family and neighbors enjoy would greatly diminish if United
Way services were not available.
Money raised in the county stays
in the county.
Over 90%
of your gift goes directly to the United Way agencies in Callaway County. The United
Way Board of Directors carefully reviews the agency's budgets and
programs and determine the amount to be allocated. In addition,
each agency is audited annually to assure the funds are used
appropriately.
Who do you help?
As a result of your dedication the
United Way's thirteen member agencies are able to provide over 200
programs and services that support our children and youth, meet basic
needs, create a safer neighborhood, strengthen our families and promote
self-sufficiency. Your gift aids one out of four county residents
at some time during their life.
Non-Coercive giving.
The United Way believes that
fundraising should be conducted in a voluntary manner. Any form of
pressure can create bad feelings and misunderstandings. Giving is
a personal matter and decision. No form is coercion is acceptable.
Serving our community for 50 years!
