Wasn’t there some kind of scandal associated with United Way a few years ago?
A. Although there were incidents at other United Way organizations (2003 United Way of the National Capital Area and in 1992 at United Way of America), our volunteer-driven United Way was not involved in any way. Each United Way is separately and locally incorporated and governed. United Way of Southeastern Pennsylvania continually examines its own practices and maintains the highest standards of accountability. These practices and procedures are in line with the practices, values, and guidelines of United Way of America and United Way’s national system.
