The Community Investment Process is a biannual opportunity for community members and United Way donors to gain a better understanding of issues, needs and solutions for Butler County. Agencies seeking United Way funding educate investment volunteers about programs and outcomes that make lasting changes in the lives of individuals and residents in our County. The committee evaluates program applications and recommends funding. It is an honor to be entrusted with investing over $650,000 in community contributions in programs that demonstrate impact and optimal results. Special thanks to our 2011 Community Investment Committee!
