Nah, United Way is a pretty good org. They look at the entire community they work in and fund the best. It's sort of like investing in a mutual fund, imho. Unless you have the time to watch where your money is going (in other words, you're retired) it makes more sense to give $$$ to the experts.

I've given $1000 the last three years, but don't ask for placement on any of their lists. That's not the point. The idea is that my community gets stronger, which is good for my business...

EXPERT break it down.
Ex = has been
spurt = drip under pressure.
I do not need a has been drip under pressure "expert" to tell me how I should donate my money.
So drink your united way koolaid.

TOTAL BS, 90% of united way members should removed.
