Community Volunteers Decide How Your Dollars are Invested

The Community Investment process is led by a team of volunteers who review each program based on three performance areas of meeting a community need, achieving results and demonstrating good stewardship. This year, funding recommendations were made by a record number 85 volunteers who participated in the process. The volunteers thoroughly review each program application, attend on-site visits, and evaluate the program’s ability to provide services effectively and efficiently.
 
"The commitment and thoroughness involved in all phases of United Way's Community Investment process is amazing" said Eddie Lowe, Columbus Bank and Trust of East Alabama and chair of this year's investment process. "Put that together with people who are giving freely of their time to ensure that donations have a true impact on people here in the Chattahoochee Valley, and you have a win-win for everyone who trusts United Way with their gifts.";

United Way of the Chattahoochee Valley currently has 26 community partner agencies and funds 49 programs that help thousands of individuals, families and children in the Chattahoochee Valley.
