Community Impact
United Way is becoming an agent for change in Benton and Lincoln counties. Once primarily a fundraising organization, today's United Way is strengthening our communities and improving lives through meaningful community impact work.
Community Impact is:
- Identifying, addressing, and solving specific health and human care issues that no single donor, charity, or government agency can handle alone.
- Bringing key partners to the table to problem solve with a community-wide focus, not just single issues.
- About improving the lives of all people affected by our community's priority issues, not just those served by individual programs.
- Beginning to bring the community together to focus on these pressing issues to achieve measurable results.
- Being an organization that focuses on the root causes of local issues and seeks lasting solutions.

Did you Know?
- People who volunteer and give live longer, are healthier and report being happier.
- When you give through United Way, you're supporting more than one issue, one charity, or one cause.
- The dollar just doesn't stretch as far as it used to - and agencies are reporting a growing need for services.
- When things are hard, they are the absolute hardest for people that United Way is designed to help, for example, seniors on fixed incomes.
- Every gift is important. Every gift can change a life. Reach out a hand to one, and influence the condition of all.
