Mobilizing people and resources to improve lives and make a positive impact in our community.
About
Community investment and initiatives - United Way works hard to ensure community impact contributions are invested in several targeted priorities to make the maximum impact possible in the Quad Cities area. Allocable community impact funds are distributed through a volunteer review process, whereby local volunteers assess programs and recommend fund allocations to the United Way QCA board of directors. In the Quad Cities, approximately 150 volunteers are involved in this important process. The board of directors also invests community impact funds in United Way QCA operations and United Way QCA initiatives such as emergency grant fund and community impact activities. Create long-lasting changes that prevent problems from happening in the first place by focusing on critical issues in our community in education, income, and health. We stand to make the greatest impact possible by creating efficient and effective strategies and developing measurable results of our work. United Way QCA has three impact councils that govern this work - education, income, and health. They lead the development of initiatives to achieve community impact.
