Date: June 24, 2025 
 
About the United Way of Stanislaus County: Envisioning the transformation of communities to 
empower human capital achievement, we serve as a catalyst for enhancing collective impact in 
health, education, and financial stability. Our core values include compassion, transparency, 
integrity, collaboration, innovation, and activation. Unapologetically committed to diversity,

while pioneering innovative solutions to longstanding community challenges. We seek

Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are fundamental to achieving our impact: 

United Way of Stanislaus County envisions a region where equity, opportunity, and prosperity

many. A commitment to Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion is at the core of who we are, the 
decisions we make, and the actions we take in our work to strengthen the communities we 
serve and advance our strategic focus to close the racial and ethnic wealth gap.

visitors, including those we serve. In addition to handling the front office and phone calls, this 
person also processes mail, prepares bank deposits, tracks and processes monthly invoices,
