Community Investment

Working Together to Build a Better Community...

United Way of Lewis County provides funding to not-for-profit organizations and programs in Lewis County. The Community Investment Committee only accepts and reviews applications on an annual basis. Program grant proposals are addressed under a Community Investment structure, composed of a diverse group of community volunteers. Funds are provided with the expectation that they will address the FUNDING PRIORITIES (Fulfilling Basic Needs, Nurturing Children and Youth, and Supporting Vulnerable and Aging Populations) set by the United Way of Lewis County Board of Directors.

The Community Investment committee, as described in the by-laws, is the community's representative for the distribution of funds. This committee is responsible for recommending the admission of new agencies and reviewing the appropriateness of continued funding for existing partner agencies.

If you are interested in becoming a volunteer on the Community Investment Committee, please complete application below and submit to United Way by February 1, 2012. Contact Linda Raschke, or call (360) 748-8100 for more information.
