Other fenders i' dude Unitod Way, Orange County Partnership for Young Children, and Town of Chapel Hill. e Partnership has already committed $10,000 towards the assessment. United Way will seek ding from other fenders for this project, since we intend to engage in a community priority s ~ `ttg process after the assessment is completed. Funding will not be sought again until an ate or new assessment is needed, approximately 3-5 years. The United Way Board voted set fide fiutding each year to support this project in the future. We hope all fenders will see the vlalue of a collaborative assessmrnt and begin to set aside funding for this endeavor.
