Community Investment Volunteers needed by United Way

By Michelle Mitchell Mar 4, 2022 | 3:09 PM

March 4, 2022 – The United Way of Decatur and Mid-Illinois are seeking volunteers to assists them with our Community Investment Process for Macon County.

This year, they are looking at programs in five Lines of Effort consisting of: Youth Education; Adult Employability & Income Resilience; Health; Trauma; and Essential Needs & Program Linkages. Their plan is to invest community funds raised during the United Way campaign into the most effective, efficient, and integrated community programs.

Each Line of Effort investment deliberation will take approximately one day from 8:00 am until 5:00 pm (except for Adult Employability which will take two days, and Trauma which could take two days).

Here is a video from a few years ago explaining the importance of this process. Their process continues to evolve and this year will not be the exact same format.
