HOW DOES FUNDING WORK?

The Impact Model is about results and greatest need.

In North Central Florida, we are focused on Health, Education, Financial Stability and Immediate Needs.

Each area of impact has its own targeted outcomes and measurable results. We build programs and partner with others to better serve people in our community.

Our team works to identify gaps in service and capacity through Community Impact Initiatives. When necessary, United Way of North Central Florida grows programs from the ground up to meet those needs.

Once sustainability has been reached, these initiatives are often transitioned to United Way Impact Partners

for the program’s continued operation and eventually funded through the Community Investment Fund.

This process allows our programs and service offerings to change with our community’s needs.

A group of volunteers, the Community Investment Council, work to ensure that our region’s greatest needs are met through the Community Investment Fund.

Overseeing the grant-funding process from initial application to program funding, the Council is invested in making sure your dollars go where they will do the most good, with a focus on long-term results.

Every one dollar you give to the United Way Community Investment Fund, brings in an average of three dollars more of impact. Our funded partners are able to leverage local funds invested with federal and state dollars to provide free programs for people in North Central Florida.

60 YEARS OF IMPACT SIX DECADES OF CHANGING LIVES AND SERVING THE COMMUNITY.

In 1957 a group of local philanthropists gathered to make their permanent mark on Gainesville.

The population was nearing 29,000 and Gainesville was preparing to celebrate its 50-year anniversary. This group of well-meaning philanthropists formed the United Community Fund of Greater Gainesville setting things in place for a remarkable run that continues to this day.

By 2017, United Way of North Central Florida’s footprint includes six counties and has raised more than $100 million dollars to improve the Health, Education and Financial Stability of people living in the region. It is a legacy to be proud of when a group of well-meaning people can leverage their time and expertise to have a huge impact on their community.

This year, United Way celebrated that legacy through a series of hands-on donor engagement tours called United Way Express. Each month, a bus donated by Candies Motorcoaches was loaded with donors, United Way staff and potential donors and headed out to see our funded programs in action.

In 2014, United Way launched the nation’s only Small Business Partnership Program—a leadership and donor opportunity for businesses too small to run a workplace campaign. What began with three business has ballooned to more than 125 in three years. All revenue from the partnership is linked to the agency’s Community Investment Fund, a pool of money that supports more than 30 local programs. These programs leverage those dollars with state and federal matches and draw down an average of $3 for every $1 received.

The year also featured new partnerships including the one with the Community Foundation of North Central Florida, where the agency’s endowment funds are invested and maximized for stronger local relationships.

Additionally, a push was made this year by the state to make Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) available to all 67 Florida counties.

Finally, the year presented new challenges when a series of devastating hurricanes rocked the state and the Caribbean. With more than 30 Florida counties impacted

by Hurricane Irma and the islands ravaged by Hurricane Maria, United Way mobilized to provide emergency funding to families.

It’s been 60 years since we opened our doors, and over the decades, United Way remains committed to its mission and purpose. If we have learned anything, it’s that in order to live better, we must #LiveUNITED.

Nick Banks Front Street Commercial Real Estate Group, 2017 Board Chair

Deborah V. Bowie United Way of North Central Florida President & CEO

In honor of our 60th anniversary, we created United Way Express—a series of community bus tours to bring donors close to the causes they care about.

With the assistance of Healthy Families Child Abuse Prevention/Home Visitation program, funded through United Way’s Community Investment Fund, Kelly and her son Braylon got the help they needed to thrive.

2016–17

KELLY’S JOURNEY: ESCAPING THE CYCLE OF ABUSE.

Raised in an affluent two-parent home in Oregon, with her father, a successful businessman, by all accounts Kelly’s life should have been wonderful.

Instead, she grew up under a dark, secret shadow of verbal and physical abuse by her father, unprotected from molestation by family associates. Without a nurturing family environment, the familiar cycle of abuse rampaged her life. By the time she was 25, Kelly continued to suffer through several abusive relationships and rape.

Prescription and street drugs numbed her pain as she spiraled into inescapable hopelessness.

At 28, Kelly found hope in a new relationship and moved to Florida for a fresh start. It didn’t take long for familiar patterns to resurface. She soon found her life again under the control of an abusive man. This time, she resolved to make a positive change, giving up drugs to enroll in college. Learning that she was pregnant, her boyfriend became more abusive, beating her and tracking her every move. Kelly ran to the safety of a neighbor’s house to call the police. Charged with a felony for abusing a pregnant female and an outstanding warrant, he was sent to prison.

INVESTING IN HEALTHY FAMILIES Although free from her abuser, Kelly was pregnant, alone and lost. Feeling the responsibility for another life, she sought help. Her neighbor recommended Healthy Families’ Child Abuse Prevention/Home Visitation program, funded through United Way’s Community Investment Fund. She enrolled that same day.

All alone for delivery, the Healthy Families team helped Kelly prepare for labor and for bringing her new son home.

Caring for an infant alone would require additional emotional and mental support. Healthy Families provided counseling resources through a licensed mental health counselor. While learning to care for her son, Kelly also was treated for severe Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

Recovery wasn’t overnight, but with therapy, she and her son both began to flourish. Kelly gained a confidence she had never known. She was excelling in her classes and began working to support herself and her son.

Kelly received her bachelor’s degree, graduating cum laude and now works for a local credit union. No longer reliant on government assistance, she is self-sufficient and buying a house. Life is still challenging, but she feels proud raising a happy, healthy son who is succeeding in school.

VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT Time and effort are just as valuable as donating. There are infinite ways someone in our community can volunteer.

One can spend an hour a week through the school year to read to a child, fill backpacks with food for school kids to bring home on the weekends or help to feed the homeless. When people donate their time and efforts to volunteering, they’re changing and impacting the lives of countless others.

“

There is nothing I wouldn’t do for ReadingPals, the kids and United Way! Thank you for inspiring me to be a leader and be of service to my community!”

–Victoria Vicary, ReadingPals Intern/Volunteer Coordinator

WINDOW OF OPPORTUNITY IMPROVING QUALITY OF LIFE BY CREATING OPPORTUNITY THROUGH EDUCATION, EMPLOYMENT AND ADVOCACY. Project YouthBuild aims to help students get their high school diplomas; while building and rehabilitating low-income housing; earning construction certifications and developing leadership, life and employability skills.

The application process was rigorous but Tatayana was one of 30 students accepted into the 9-month program.

She was ecstatic to receive the acceptance phone call, knowing this program was the chance she had been waiting for.

Tatayana is 18 years old and graduated from Institute for Workforce Innovation (IWI)’s Project YouthBuild Vision 20/20 program.

Before coming to Project YouthBuild, Tatayana bounced between several different traditional and nontraditional schools in the area. In those environments, she didn’t receive the additional help and attention she needed to be successful. She began to feel unmotivated and realized she needed to make a change. To improve her future, Tatayana applied for the Project YouthBuild program, funded through United Way of North Central Florida’s Community Investment Fund.

TRANSFORMING A CHILD’S EXPERIENCE WITH BOOKS The time ReadingPals spend with their students each week translates into increased confidence in reading as well as an improvement in skills such as fluency and comprehension. Brenda Fedrigon is a retired 5th grade teacher and dance instructor. She is a second-year ReadingPals volunteer who goes above and beyond to help her ReadingPals student connect with reading and building literary skills. With her Ukulele, she incorporates music to help them remember the sounds of letters and words. It is volunteers like Brenda who transform a child’s experience with books into a fun and engaging opportunity to learn and grow.

2016–17

In the program, she thrived under the hands-on approach and discovered new passions and ambitions. Tatayana loves painting and improving the community through volunteer work. She has accumulated more than 315 volunteer hours helping her community. Through Project YouthBuild, Tatayana has received numerous construction certifications such as OSHA 10 and NCCR to help her employment prospects.

Graduating at the top of her class, Tatayana was awarded the Chief Tony Jones Leadership Award for her academic achievements, attendance and leading by example. Her next goal is to serve in the Army. A year ago Tatayana’s future was uncertain but through Project YouthBuild and United Way she now has the tools, education and experience she needs to achieve her goals.

COMMUNITY INVESTMENT FUND United Way of North Central Florida fights for the Health, Education and Financial Stability of every person in our community.

DIRECT SERVICE PROGRAMS In addition to the Community Investment Fund programs above, United Way of North Central Florida has four main direct-service programs: ReadingPals volunteers spend time with students every week which translates to improved fluency, comprehension and reading confidence by their students.

VITA is an IRS-funded program that provides free tax preparation for low- to moderate-income individuals in North Central Florida. Last year, VITA served more than 2,000 individuals, refunding them a total of $474,415.

FamilyWize Prescription Drug Program allows individuals to get a discount on their prescription medication, even with insurance. Last year, our six-county region saved more than $461,687!

2-1-1 is a free, confidential 24/7 help line that connects people in our community to critical health and social service resources.

WORKPLACE CAMPAIGNS STRENGTHENING CONNECTIONS BETWEEN EMPLOYEES AND THEIR COMMUNITY. RAISING THE ORGANIZATION’S PUBLIC PROFILE. BOLSTERING EMPLOYEE SPIRIT—ALL WHILE MAKING A POSITIVE IMPACT IN OUR COMMUNITY.

We are so grateful for every business that participates in our Workplace Campaigns.

With more than 60 percent of our revenue—money that earns a return of three dollars for every one dollar given— we count on these campaigns to make an impact on people’s lives, every day.

A United Way Workplace Campaign unites employees in all offices or branches of a company and gives them an opportunity to donate, volunteer and contribute to causes that matter to them. Running a workplace campaign strengthens connections between employees and their community, raises the organization’s public profile, builds team spirit among employees and makes the biggest impact in our community. Through easy payroll deduction, a small gift from every paycheck supports the community where you live and work.

Publix has consistently been a top United Way campaign, raising nearly $700,000 this year alone. Their success thrives off of strong company leadership and a robust team spirit that translates into their friendly attitude to customers and each other.

6

2016–17

United Way Workplace Campaign dollars are invested locally and leveraged by vetted programs that provide solutions to our community’s most pressing problems.

On average, our programs receive $3 in matching state and/or federal funds for every $1 they receive from United Way.
