United Way announces Humboldt partnership |
On August 28, 2009, United Way of Humboldt County and United Way of the Wine Country announced a new partnership that will add Humboldt and Del Norte counties to the geographic areas served by United Way of the Wine Country.
This partnership is the result of a thorough plan by both boards on how to better serve the Humboldt/Del Norte region. The new organization will dramatically streamline the United Way system in local communities for maximum efficiency, allowing more donor dollars to be spent directly on improving lives and strengthening communities. With the addition of these counties, United Way of the Wine Country now serves five northern California counties: Sonoma, Mendocino, Lake, Humboldt and Del Norte. United Way has maintained a presence in Humboldt and Del Norte for the past 25 years, but this transition to United Way of the Wine Country is expected to give the local operation a much more robust, impactful presence.
