Not sure how my post wasn’t specific enough. You asked for “An organization that ministers to the health and well-being of the city and its citizens.” That’s what the United Way does by creating an efficient, effective way for volunteers and donors to put their attention towards the highest priority health and wellness issues in Allen County.

If that’s not specific enough, I give up.

@Wendy: Thanks for the invitation to stay. I do feel like the old man sometimes. I’ll consider my options.

@Jennifer: For the purpose of this post, I’m looking for groups to support.

@Anthony: Can you mention something specific that has to do with this post? Is there a group in United Way that specifically addresses the concerns of this post and this blog?

Jon, I would welcome you to stay active in YLNI. While we are aimed at people in their 20s and 30s, we welcome those who are interested in and support our intiatives. Age is a state of mind!

The United Way of Allen County fits your description. It’s an organization that focuses on a wide range of community needs, while providing the expertise to ensure that the highest prioirity needs are being met. This allows donors and volunteers to ensure that their dollars and time are going to the highest priorities, without having to research each community need and not for profit on their own.
