Financial Information
United Way chooses to be transparent to our donors. There are costs related to our operations and fundraising campaign. These costs include printing of campaign materials and staff and office expenses; an amount of 24 cents for each dollar contributed. The Better Business Bureau states that charities should not spend more than 35 cents for each dollar contributed on operating expenses. We are proud to say our United Way’s 24 cents is below this national standard.
