The Wiregrass United Way held an orientation session Thursday for more than 40 volunteers, from the six counties covered by WUW who are participating in the Funds Distribution process.
These volunteers are divided into four committees, according to WUW Chief Executive Officer Walter Hill. “Each of the 37 partner agencies are in one of the four focus areas, which are Helping Youth Succeed, Meeting Basic Needs, Serving People with Special Needs, and Strengthening Families and Individuals.
They will also recommend which special projects are funded with the $400,000 Challenge Grant contributed by the Wiregrass Foundation. “These funds cannot be used for operating expenses. They must be used for capital improvement projects or other one-time expenses for technology upgrades, equipment, vehicles, and other items needed by the partner agencies,” Hill said.
Helping Youth Succeed: Mallory Herring and Terri Ricks in Barbour County; Ashley Avery and Mary Sue Cain in Coffee County; Ben Baker and Heather Cohen in Dale County; Marlene Ferrell in Geneva County; Pam Dyson and Gabby Johnson in Henry County; and Sue Gilland and Dr. Debra Wright in Houston County.
