TO INCREASE THE ORGANIZED CAPACITY OF PEOPLE TO CARE FOR ONE ANOTHER

THE ORGANIZATION CONDUCTS AN ANNUAL CAMPAIGN TO BENEFIT NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. ALLOCATIONS ARE PAID DIRECTLY TO THE NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS. IT ALSO CONDUCTS COMMUNITY SERVICES.

FOR NEARLY TWO YEARS, UNITED WAY NSV HAS COLLABORATED WITH UNITED WAY AGENCIES ACROSS VIRGINIA ON THE ALICE PROJECT, WHICH SHINES A SPOTLIGHT ON THE NUMBER OF FAMILIES IN OUR COMMUNITY WHO ARE STRUGGLING TO MAKE ENDS MEET. THESE FAMILIES WORK HARD AND EARN MORE THAN THE FEDERAL POVERTY LEVEL, BUT CAN BARELY COVER THE BASICS: HOUSING, CHILD CARE, FOOD, HEALTH CARE, AND TRANSPORTATION. THE PROBLEM IS ALICE FAMILIES, WHO OFTEN DO NOT QUALIFY FOR SOCIAL SERVICES BENEFITS, OFTEN DON'T KNOW WHERE TO TURN WHEN A CRISIS OCCURS. THE VALLEY ASSISTANCE NETWORK (VAN) WAS CREATED TO FILL A GAP THAT OUR COMMUNITY DESPERATELY NEEDS. IT HAS PROVEN TO BE A SAFETY NET FOR HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE IN OUR COMMUNITY.

DURING THE CURRENT FISCAL YEAR, THE UNITED WAY NSV DISBURSED $126,150 IN RELIEF TO NEEDY INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES SUFFERING FROM THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC FROM $94,193 RECEIVED IN CONTRIBUTIONS FROM DONORS AND $100,000 COMMITTED BY THE BOARD FOR THIS EFFORT.
