Program areas at United Way of Reno County
Agency allocation & development: match the resources of people in the community who care, to people in the community who need help and resources. Uwrc currently supports 26 local nonprofit organizations, streamlining the efficient delivery of human and health services.
Dolly parton imagination library: administer the dolly parton imagination library, which is an early literacy book program for all children under the age of five in Reno County. We retain financial sponsors, handle program promotions & registration, and maintain a database of all registrants.
Disaster relief: help the Reno County community respond, and ultimately recover, from any disaster. Uwrc is the first place to call, either through 211 for resource information, or directly to our office. We chair the work of the Reno County voad (voluntary organizations active in disaster) that helps with long-term recovery after a disaster throughout Reno County.
Community work day: sponsor hundreds of volunteers throughout the community for an annual work day. Groups, both large and small, work together and do hands on projects for local non-profits that need assistance.
