The Community Impact team along with the rest of the United Way staff would like to extend our appreciation to the dedicated members of the Community Impact Committee for their contributions to our work. Their insights and support are essential to our local efforts for change, and touch on everything from granting, to research, to advocacy.

Today we thank our current crew of Community Impact Committee members: Nancy Fischer (who is also on our DEI Committee, our Board, and the Board’s Executive); Adam Hopkins (who is on the Board as well); Christie Nash; Danielle Belair; Heather Holland; Karen Wilson; Kirsten Armbrust; and Sheila Olan MacClean.

Drop a comment to help us celebrate these amazing volunteers!
