Supporting United Way is not just a donation; it's an investment in your community.
Meeting Needs in Times of Crisis
A gentleman was referred to the Elk Valley Improvement Council in Clendenin in September 2005. He was unable to work as the result of a fall sustained while working on a roof. His employer had not paid into Worker’s Compensation, so his claim was denied.
Volunteers Needed!
United Way’s Information and Referral Services provides the resources and services needed for nonprofit organizations to engage volunteers in productive and meaningful community service experiences. Our staff provides training and technical assistance to organizations that involve volunteers, organizes special service days and volunteer events, and collaborates with agencies to support community service learning.
Information and Referral Services partners with Volunteer West Virginia!, a program of the West Virginia Commission for National and Community Service, that links volunteers with volunteer opportunities. For more information visit the Volunteer West Virginia! web site at www.volunteerwv.org.
If you are interested in being a community volunteer but don’t see a posted opportunity that interests you, please submit an application so that the staff can work with you to provide the best match possible.
