Current Realities Facing United Ways
Challenges
Opportunities
 Lack of significant growth in
impact or revenue generation in
local markets
 Flexibility to adapt to evolving
business needs
 Changes in individual
engagement with philanthropy
 Global changes in corporate
landscape
 Individual donor loss
 Financial sustainability even
as revenues diversify
50
 New platforms and
approaches to reach individual
donors
 United Way mission aligns
with corporate CSR and
shared value priorities
 United Ways and United Way
Worldwide co-create and
execute on our plans moving
forward
Future Growth Opportunities
•Driving donor growth
• Text to mobile pilot
• Crowdsourcing App
• Mobile engagement platform to engage
individual donors in/out workplace
• Breakthrough marketing campaigns
• Big data analytics to better segment donors
•Enhancing revenue growth: strategic agreements
with corporate partners
•Expanding our platform for community impact:
• Products designed to drive impact and revenue
growth
• Global centers for impact
* Resourcing plans to be determined
51
We Can Do More: Strategy for Resourcing our Growth
Leveraged debt

Potential to raise up to $50M to provide start-up growth capital

Working with Goldman Sachs to develop funding plan
Philanthropy
 Third party support to jumpstart innovation
Network efficiencies to reinvest in impact and fundraising growth
Dues adjustment

1% of Current Year Support v. 1% of Total Campaign*

Effective January 1, 2016. Early notification in order to plan for next
year’s budget cycle

Significant increases will be implemented gradually to mitigate budget
implications
*Sliding scale for $50 M+ remains in effect and minimum dues will be raised from $500 to $2000 per year.
52
Why Change Dues Formula?
• Current methodology doesn’t align with business/community impact model
 Current formula does not include diversified revenue streams (i.e.
grants, endowments, etc.)
 UWW staff support and brand equity utilized to secure diversified
revenue streams
 Decreasing local campaigns has resulted in decreased dues revenue
 Flex credits will increase proportionally
•Emerging growth strategies require additional funding support
 Support of strategic initiatives (Bold Plays)
 Last increase was 10 years ago. Not sustainable.
 In 2013, membership support represented 36% of UWW revenue (vs.
52% of revenue in 2005)
• In 2015, UWW will utilize $4M of cash reserves to provide Bold Play seed
funding

Brand Management & Communications
Telling our story
Communicating United Way's
story effectively can:
• Raise visibility
• Boost credibility
• Deepen connections with donors
• Help engage new supporters
...And drive lasting change in our community
Good story-telling is part of making a difference
But most people think we’re about … money
• Fundraiser
• Pass-through
• Help the needy (“other people”)
A lot of the messaging is around the results
of the annual campaign and you don’t hear
anything more until the next campaign.

Old story (charity)
New story (change)
•We have problems to fix
• We are fixing problems
•Support United Way

•Just ask for dollars
• Create connections
•Talk about “programs”
• Talk about successes
•Struggling people
• Community conditions
•Complex

What works in talking about our work
