COMMUNITY IMPACT: UNITED WAY OF MIDLAND POSITIVELY IMPACTS THE COMMUNITY BY WORKING WITH OTHER ORGANIZATIONS TO IDENTIFY OUR COMMUNITY'S MOST PRESSING HEALTH, EDUCATION AND SELF-SUFFICIENCY NEEDS AND THEN ALLOCATES FUNDS TO LOCAL NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS WITH PROGRAMS THAT ARE MAKING A MEASURABLE DIFFERENCE IN ADDRESSING THOSE NEEDS. WE ACCOMPLISH THIS THROUGH:- ASSESSING THE NEEDS OF THE COMMUNITY- ADVOCATING FOR SELECTED PUBLIC POLICIES- REVIEWING FUNDING APPLICATIONS SUBMITTED UNDER IDENTIFIED AREAS OF NEED- ALLOCATING FUNDS TO APPROVED PROGRAMS- FUNDING OF NEW AND SPECIAL COMMUNITY INITIATIVES
