About the Chelsea United Way
Chelsea United Way is a locally run chapter of the United Way
of America (UWA) umbrella brand. A volunteer Board of 21 Directors
oversees our strategic direction and steers our financial decisions.
We support 13 member agencies, and we review these agencies each year
to ensure they do the best possible work in the community. In this
economy we must evaluate agencies on four basic criteria.
Food/clothing, Healthcare, Transportation, and Senior support.
The Chelsea United Way contributes over 90% of its donations to its
member agencies.
Over 35% of our donations come from direct donations from individuals
in our community. 65% of the donations aome from local businesses,
either through campaigns that they run for us or direct donations.
