In this episode of One Community United, three first-time Allocations Committee members share their experiences serving in this important volunteer role. They discuss how the process gave them a deeper understanding of United Way's impact and the vital work being done across our community. Through hearing presentations from local nonprofits seeking grant funding, they gained firsthand insight into the challenges organizations face and the lives they are transforming every day. Their stories highlight the value of community involvement and the thoughtful process behind investing United Way funds where they can make the greatest impact.
