Kerr County United Way was incorporated in 1960 as an avenue in which to consolidate the fund raising of various non-profit agencies into one fund drive versus many. Today in Kerr County there are over 200 organizations who have non-profit status.
The monies raised throughout the campaign year are promised to local agencies (within Kerr County) that applied for funding assistance through an interview process that takes place with the volunteer board members each year.
The Kerr County United Way board is comprised of local volunteers who carefully review each of the agencies and organizations that request funding. The review process includes a thorough examination of the applicants’ missions and their abilities to deliver the service for which they are funded. In this way, your contribution dollars are allocated with a view toward providing the widest range of services to people throughout the community who have the greatest needs.
Our 2013-2014 fundraising goal this year is $200,000 which will be allocated to the following agencies: Alamo Area Council of Boy Scouts, American Red Cross, Any Baby Can, Art2Heart, Big Brothers Big Sisters, Christian Assistance Ministry, Christian Men's Job Corps, Christian Women's Job Corps, Dietert Center, Families & Literacy, INC, Girl Scouts of Southwest Texas, Hill Country Arts Foundation, Hill Country CARES, Hill Country CASA, Kerr County 4-H, K-STAR, Kerrville Citizen Police Academy Alumni Association, Kerr County Mental Health Center Advisory Board, Kerr County YMCA, New Hope Counseling Center, The Pregnancy Resource Center, The Salvation Army.
