Washtenaw United Way’s Community Fund

When you give to Washtenaw United Way’s Community Fund you support these agencies through the fund distribution process. Volunteers carefully review agency requests, community needs and program effectiveness. As a result, local programs addressing the most pressing human needs receive support.

Community Fund agencies must submit program information and allocation requests to Washtenaw United Way for review and consideration. Fund Distribution volunteers visit agencies, review the program information and allocation requests and make recommendations to the United Way’s Board of Directors.

Community Fund agencies must meet strict accountability standards in order to receive an annual allocation. Agencies must also submit monthly financial reports and an annual certified audit.
