Stand Up For Your Community
Our message becomes stronger every time another person shares it or contributes to the conversation. You can lend your voice by:
- Sharing an issue area with us you believe to be important. We frequently offer testimony at the local and state level on issues and legislation that effects the health, education, and financial stability in our community. Our approach is to offer legislators a community perspective to better inform their decision making. Additionally, we frequently write articles for the local newspaper or facilitate community conversations on these topics, if they are of import in our community.
- Asking your employer to run a United Way Campaign, or organizing a group to conduct a fundraiser
- Sharing your story about a positive impact you have made in your community
- Participating in UWGN-affiliated events and community groups (sign up for e-newsletter to be notified)
- Sharing and commenting on content through UWGN’s social media channels
- Engaging other community members in our annual needs Assessment reviews
- Serving on our investment panels
- Joining one of our community initiatives and coalitions
