It's hard to imagine what a day in the life of a United Way volunteer looked like 50 years ago, 25 years ago or even 10. What we've found from digging through archives and listening to stories from long time volunteers is that there are some common threads we don't think will ever change. First, this organization was started from dedicated volunteers and only continues to this day because of those who stepped forward to lead our organization, raise funds for the campaign and invest the dollars wisely. Second, we continue to value the relationships that we have built over the years. We can't do this work without the generous contributions of our partner agencies, donors, corporate partners, volunteers, local politicians and communities across Central Alberta. Third, we invest locally. The money raised in Central Alberta, stays in Central Alberta. We are investing in your family, your neighbours and your colleagues. We can proudly say that we have been improving lives in Central Alberta for the past 50 years! Finally, understanding the impact and necessity of United Way in the community continues to this day. The organization was formed because businesses wanted an easy way to make one investment and know it would result in creating a healthy community where they lived and worked. Today, we continue to improve our communities by investing in the root issues of problems we are facing. |
