WE HAVE A JOB OPENING!

 

          Joy McGinnis, our CEO for the last five years, is retiring in June 2012 and we need to fill her shoes.  During her time here, Joy was instrumental in starting our free tax site and bringing a free prescription drug discount card to the area. 

          She worked with Columbia County Family Center to get a financial literacy program started and recently announced that Berwick Area United Way is now an approved Educational Improvement Tax Credit sponsoring organization.

            In spite of her computer discomfort, Joy helped get us on Facebook, Twitter and YouTube, improved our web site, set up our email newsletter and marketing on Constant Contact, and upgraded our campaign tracking and accounting software.  This spring, we will move to a web based funding application program to streamline that process for our volunteers and our agencies. 

            We will miss her vision and passion for United Way and the Berwick community but we know some one is out there ready to take on the challenge.  If you know some one, please send them to www.liveunited.org for details and information on how to apply.
