United Way of Summit County Posts Annual Report Online

“Going Green and Saving Green.”

That’s how United Way of Summit County (UWSC) President Bob Kulinski described the decision to post the organization’s Annual Report online and not produce a printed version. “Like every non-profit organization, and frankly every business, we should always be looking for ways to be more fiscally responsible,” Kulinski said. “In today’s difficult economic climate, it’s more important than ever to be prudent stewards of the money entrusted to us.”

Available at www.uwsummit.org/annualreport, the 18-page publication – entitled ‘How to LIVE UNITED in Summit County’ – offers highlights of the organization’s 2008-09 fiscal year and lists the hundreds of volunteers who gave of themselves to contribute to United Way’s successful year. UWSC joins a growing trend toward online annual reports.

The online annual report is designed to more actively and effectively communicate United Way of Summit County’s organizational strategy and community impact results by utilizing easy-to-navigate links; and to share information with donors, volunteers and other stakeholders.

For those unable to access the internet, or who would like a hard copy of the annual report, call Michael Gaffney at 330-643-5532, and UWSC will send them a copy of the publication.

United Way of Summit County encourages everyone to LIVE UNITED. Each of us has the power to improve lives and advance the common good when we give, advocate and volunteer. For more information on how to give now, on programs and services in our community, or to volunteer, call your United Way of Summit County at (330) 762-7601, explore our website at http://www.uwsummit.org/, or visit our offices at 90 N.
