United Way’s Board of Directors is a distinguished group of leaders in Portage County whose strategic decision-making and guidance steer the organization. We recruit people and organizations from all across the community who bring the passion, expertise, and resources needed to make an impact.
The commitment of the United Way Board of Directors is evident in their donation of time and financial resources to support our work.
