COMMUNITY INVESTMENT PROCESS
Through a year long process, Community Investment Committee volunteers evaluate social service agencies and programs to determine how to invest dollars generated from the annual United Way campaign. The annual process is:
- Volunteer Recruitment
- Volunteer Education/Training
- Applications Reviewed/Site Visits/Reporting
- Debriefing
- Allocations
- Approval & Distribution
COMMUNITY INVESTMENT FUNDING GUIDELINES
Investment Guidelines were established to help the Community Investment Committee (CIC) carefully assess each United Way partnership to determine whether an agency has demonstrated alignment to United Way of Greater Lafayette’s strategic goals, provides measurable program data, and demonstrates fiscal stability. With these guidelines as the basis for funding decisions, volunteers can ensure donors that their contributed dollars are well-spent. To see how the dollars are invested and the impact made, view our annual reports. A list of funded partners and programs can be found here.
For additional information regarding the Request for Proposal (RFP) process, including available documents and details, please visit our RFP page.
