Who makes the decisions for how United Way of Kern County operates? You
might be surprised to learn that although the United Way name is
recognized globally, each United Way is independent and locally
governed. That's important, because it means your United Way is governed
by your fellow Kern County residents. The branch manager of your local
bank, your retired neighbor down the street, the CEO of the oil company
whose kids go to school with yours might all be involved on United Way's
Governing Board.
United Way's Governing Board is comprised of our community's hardest
working people. They have the important task of overseeing United Way to
ensure that it operates in a manner that meets the expectations of our
donors. This means determining strategic direction, reviewing financial
data on a regular basis, approving United Way's operating budget and
determining how to reinvest donor dollars to advance the common good of
our community.Members:
