Board of Directors: Directors for the United Way of Odessa serve three-year terms and take on a variety of responsibilities during their tenure with the organization. For more information about serving on the United Way board, contact President Christi Callicoatte at 432-368-5483.
Campaign Team: As mentioned on the CAMPAIGN page, the annual campaign is vital to our success in the community. Campaign volunteers who serve as Division Chairs, Loaned Executives or Employee Campaign Coordinators make all the difference in getting the job done right. Making an employee available to the United Way as a campaign volunteer is one of the greatest ways to show your support for community solutions. For more information about our 2010 campaign, contact the office at (432) 332-0941 of email campaign@uwodessa.org.
Community Investment: On the flip side of the Campaign Team, Community Investment volunteers make critical decisions about the distribution of funds each year. As the United Way implements the new outcome-based funding model, Community Investment volunteers are more important than ever. We encourage all companies with workplace campaigns to have a representative on our Community Investment Team. Contact Community Investment Chair, Stephanie Latimer, at (432) 563-5239.
Community Needs: United Way is focused on finding solutions to pressing community needs not currently being addressed by one of our funded programs or local community agencies. Interested? Contact Tom Pursel uwodirector@uwodessa.org or call (432) 332-0941.
Communications Committee: Do you have a background in advertising, marketing, communication, or another related field? If so, then get in touch with us. We are always looking for volunteers to help us get our message out, plan special events, and take on a variety of special projects. If this sounds like something you might be interested in contact the Communications Chair, Dayna Matysek, at (432) 553-7111.
Finance Committee: This group of volunteers is accountable for all funds received, and maintains a high standard of financial management. If you are interested in being part of this committee contact the office at finance@uwodessa.org or call (432) 332-0941.
