United Way Manitowoc County

United Way Manitowoc County is committed to upholding equity as the presence of justice and fairness within our procedures, processes, and distribution of resources.  Equity is the foundation of our work, from our engagement with donors to our investment of community resources to our interactions with the public. We commit to equity and explicitly denounce racism/ethnic discrimination to advance our mission of connecting people, resources and organizations by prioritizing marginalized and systemically excluded people to create an equitable, thriving community for all. While we seek to assist all in the community, our mission compels us to prioritize underprivileged and under-recognized individuals. It is necessary to acknowledge race, ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and intersectional identities in order to end the historical, social, and systemic inequities that persist in our county.

What’s something you wish more people knew about you?

Inclusiveness is one of the core values guiding the United Way Manitowoc County (UWMC).  We reaffirm this belief in our policies, which guide and direct our employment practices, program funding and volunteer recruitment. In living out this core value, UWMC strives to provide equal opportunity to people of any race, creed, color, religion, marital status, sexual orientation, age, national origin, sex, veteran status, or those with disabilities.  We promote the full realization of this policy through the positive recognition of the value of diversity.
