How is United Way organized locally and how do the local United Ways relate to the United Way of America?
United Way of America is a national training and service center for independent local United Way organizations, not a national headquarters. It serves much like a trade association for the individual United Ways. Each local United Way is independent of the United Way of America and is locally governed. Local United Ways pay nominal dues to receive the training and marketing services offered by the United Way of America. The National Football League (NFL) television commercials, which the NFL produces and airs at no charge for United Way, are examples of a United Way of America service.
