FUND DISTRIBUTION VOLUNTEERS

It’s that time of year again when we reach out to our community to recruit Fund Distribution Volunteers. 

Volunteers of all backgrounds take part in the fund distribution process and work hard to ensure that the donated dollars are spent where they are needed most, and in the most efficient way possible, to impact our community goals. Each year, a group of around 100 volunteers participate in this process to review applications from nonprofits requesting funds from United Way of Davidson County.  These volunteers make decisions on how to allocate funding to a variety of local agencies doing life-changing work. Our community relies on these volunteers to act as stewards for funds by the United Way of Davidson County.  You can be part of this amazing group!

What’s the commitment?  

  • Review the applications of your assigned nonprofits (typically you will review 2 to 3 nonprofits asking for UW funding)

  • Attend virtual training on October 26th – 8:30 – 10:00 AM

  • Attend site visits/financial presentations with your panel – December 1st – 8:00 – until (typically wrap up between 3:30-5:00 PM)

 

If interested, please fill out the attached volunteer application and email it back to Kristie Hege (kristiehege@uwdavidson.org) OR mail it to PO Box 492, Lexington NC 27293!  Please help us spread the word by sharing with others who may be interested in volunteering!
