Opportunity Details
Subcommittee Member
United Way is also seeking individuals to serve on our Regional Investment Committee (RIC) subcommittees. Each of the three subcommittees supports United Way’s philosophy toward building a stronger community and ensure donor investments are distributed in a responsible manner. The three subcommittees are as follows:
Safety Net Subcommittee: Provides oversight to the Safety Net funding process. Safety Net is our largest funding pool providing services across our 16-county service area. These nonprofit organizations address needs identified in support of our five impact pillars.
Systems Change Subcommittee: Provides oversight to the Systems Change funding process. We use a systems change approach where we seek to understand and raise awareness of the most needed services and resources, and mobilize the community to address identified needs on three levels; individual, agency, and community.
Targeted Subcommittee: Provides oversight to the Targeted funding process. As emergent, emergency or crisis support is needed in our community; United Way supports programs and organizations to help meet those needs through targeted fundraising and one-time grantmaking efforts.
More in-depth information will be provided at the upcoming orientation scheduled for Tuesday, August 13, 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. and Thursday, August 15, 4:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
