The United Way Brand
The use of the United Way brand is more than just a requirement of partnership; it is a mark of distinction that provides mutually beneficial results for both UWNC and the organizations within our Partner Network.
Our Partners are encouraged to utilize the United Way brand, which is one of the most recognized nonprofit brands in the world. The more we get the United Way of Nevada County name out in the community, the more people will identify the name with good work. That provides mutually beneficial results for both UWNC and the partners in our network. The “Community Partner” logo should be displayed and clearly visible.
