Join Our Finance Committee

At United Way Peterborough & District, we believe that strong financial stewardship is the foundation of impactful community work. We are currently seeking dedicated and experienced individuals to join our Finance Committee—a vital group that supports our Board of Directors in overseeing the financial health and sustainability of our organization.

What Does the Finance Committee Do?

Finance Committee members play an essential advisory role, offering oversight and guidance on a range of financial matters. This is not a fundraising role—it’s about governance, accountability, and strategic insight. Committee members:
  • Provide oversight of our Investment Policy
  • Review and assess the annual budget
  • Ensure appropriate internal controls are in place
  • Support the annual audit process
  • Review financial policies and procedures
  • Act as a resource to staff when financial guidance is needed
You’ll be working alongside a team of Finance Officers and supporting our Senior Director of Operations & Revenue Generation, contributing your expertise to help us make informed, responsible decisions that benefit our entire community. To view past annual reports and financial statements, visit: https://www.uwpeterborough.ca/reports/

Why Join?

By joining the Finance Committee, you’ll be part of a passionate team committed to making a difference  throughout the City and County of Peterborough. Your insights will help ensure that every dollar entrusted to United Way is used effectively and transparently to support local programs and initiatives.

Contact Us

If you have a background in finance, accounting, grants, and/or governance and are looking for a meaningful way to give back to your community, we’d love to hear from you.
Send your resume to Rhonda: rgilchrist@uwpeterborough.ca
Together, we can build a strong community.

Today our team at United Way Peterborough & District proudly wears pink in recognition of #PinkShirtDay 💗

Thank you to @staplescanada for donating “Be Kind Always” shirts to United Way Centraides across the country, helping remove barriers so everyone can participate in this important day.

Pink Shirt Day is about more than a colour. It’s about creating spaces where people feel seen, heard, valued, and safe. It’s about standing up to bullying and standing up for one another.

We’re grateful to work alongside partners who don’t just talk about belonging — they actively invest in it.
Kindness matters. Inclusion matters. Community matters.

#BeKindAlways
