I have always been a supporter and donate because United Way funds quality programs. It can be difficult to pick between them and provide enough total dollars to individual organizations, so UW pools funds to support them all. UW provides leadership to a large group of nonprofits and as community partners, they work together to change our communities for the better.

I have been lucky to work with and donate to the United Way for many years. I feel that watching the outcome of their work in our community has the results I can see in so many lives. Southwest Colorado is a giving community and to actually see these efforts translate into helping the lives of so many, makes it worth it.
