United Way Colchester County

Improving lives and building community in Colchester County

Strategy & Accountability

Operational Strategy

The United Way of Colchester County focuses all work on continually making a positive impact on the lives of our families, friends, neighbours and co-workers, right here in Colchester County. We do this by:

  • Engaging and mobilizing the community through dollars, influence, time , knowledge and action
  • Addressing the underlying causes of issues within the community, not just the symptoms
  • Strengthening the network of services and the capacity of non-profit agencies and the community itself
  • Influencing public attitudes, support systems and relevant policies

Accountability

Year after year, market research shows United Way to be one of the top charities in Canada.

We lead in terms of awareness and prominence with transparency, accountability, and trust as valuable assets. United Way is accountable to its donors and the public to ensure prudent, effective, and efficient distribution and the use of its resources. We value our donor information unless authorized by the donor or as required by law. If you have any questions about our policies and practices, please do not hesitate to contact us!
