The United Way of Van Wert County was established in 1922 to
"increase the organized capacity of people to care for one another".
When you give to
United Way, your dollars are invested right back into your community.
Through the programs funded by the annual campaign drive, you can touch the
lives of almost everyone in Van Wert County. Contributions are distributed among the many non-profit organizations
which meet the prioritized requirements established yearly by a group of community
members.
This group of dedicated volunteers spend hours investigating each program
to assess the validity, necessity, and benefit to the entire community.
