About
United Way of Whitman County improves the HEALTH, EDUCATION and FINANCIAL STABILITY of Whitman County residents by mobilizing the caring power of communities. We are helping people who live and work in Pullman and Whitman County.
United Way of Whitman County raises vitally needed funds for our partner agencies with the help of generous contributions from local individuals, companies, especially Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories, and employees of Washington State University. We are closer than ever to meeting our agencies' needs.
DIVERSITY, EQUITY & INCLUSION
STATEMENT
We take the broadest possible view of diversity.
We value the visible and invisible qualities that make you who you are.
We welcome that every person brings a unique perspective and experience to advance our mission and progress our fight for the health, education, and financial stability of every person in every community.
We believe that each United Way community member, donor, volunteer, advocate, and employee must have equal access to solving community problems.
We strive to include diversity, equity, and inclusion practices at the center of our daily work.
We commit to using these practices for our business and our communities.
Join us in embracing diversity, equity and inclusion for every person in every community.
WHERE YOUR MONEY GOES
WIDE REACH -- United Way is the best way to reach the most people with your charitable donations. Through our network of local youth, health, and social services agencies, your gifts help provide essential programs in our community. United Way supports our safety net here in Whitman County.
WISE INVESTMENT -- United Way keeps administrative costs to a minimum. That means we put more of your money where you want it to go -- to help those who need it most. In recent years, 85 percent of the funds we raised were allocated to Palouse area agencies, while 10 percent paid for fund-raising costs and 5 percent for our local administrative costs.
Let's Live United
RESULTS EXPECTED -- To become a United Way agency, local organizations must demonstrate how they provide vital services to the people of Pullman and Whitman County. Each year, an all-volunteer committee from United Way evaluates each agency's performance and make recommendations for funding based on the agency's results and plans for the coming year.
YOUR INTERESTS -- Nearly all of your contribution to United Way stays in Whitman County. Building a stronger community and ensuring a brighter future is what United Way is all about.
LIVE UNITED -- As we help individual neighbors in need in Pullman and Whitman County, we strengthen our communities as a whole, helping us all. That's what it means to Live United. Please join us.
