Diaper banks collect, store, and donate diapers to a network of partner agencies that distribute free diapers to families facing financial hardship. The mission of the diaper bank is to ensure that families living in poverty have an adequate supply of diapers for their infants and toddlers and to raise community awareness that "basic human needs" include diapers.The vision of the diaper bank is a two-generation approach that focuses on creating opportunities for meeting the needs of vulnerable children and their parents. Two-generation approaches draw from findings that the well-being of parents is crucial to their children's social-emotional, physical, and economic well-being. At the same time, a parent's ability to succeed in school and the workplace is substantially affected by how well their children are doing. Last year we distributed 4,133 wipes and 212,230 diapers! 38464 Dolly Parton Imagination Library - The Dolly Parton's Imagination Library is a book gifting program for preschool-age children, ages birth to five. To enroll in the program, the children must live in a community that sponsors the Imagination Library. The program replication strategy is simple; each month, an age-appropriate book is mailed directly to the enrolled child's home at no cost to the parent. The books are mailed directly to the child to create a sense of excitement and bond with the books and create an opportunity to read and connect with a caregiver. In 2023-2024, there were 1,967 children registered throughout Skagit County (not including La Conner, Anacortes and Fidalgo Island). 15240 Financial People Project - The Financial People Project offers classes to help people gain the skills they need for financial stability and lasting success. In 2023-2024, we updated and moved the program online to a platform called Canvas, making it easier for more people to access and interact with. The materials are available in English and Spanish, and participants can go through them whenever it works best for them. Using the FDIC Money Smart curriculum, the program covers important financial topics such as budgeting, paying down debt, using bank services and checking accounts, understanding credit, getting loans, and building savings. 22754 18588 Health and Income Programs Expenses - United Way of Skagit County works with many community partners to provide support for health and financial security.

Youth United is a program supported and funded in part by United Way. It is a school-based extracurricular program that was developed as an alternative leadership opportunity to provide rewards and recognition to rural high school students who perform community service. Students volunteer at local organizations for hundreds of hours. Each student who accrues at least 100 volunteer hours earned a varsity letter at an award presentation in the spring. Students volunteer with sites including the library, secondhand stores, and other local organizations. In addition, United Way provides financial support to create and maintain a website disseminating Skagit County community indicators in coordination with Population Health Trust. This website provides critical information for nonprofit organizations, schools and public agencies while giving individuals easy to understand one-stop information about local trends and statistics.Varsity in Volunteerism - Youth United Varsity in Volunteerism (ViV) is a program of the United Way of Skagit County and United General District 304 in partnership with local school districts. ViV clubs are active in Anacortes, Burlington, Concrete, La Conner, Mount Vernon, and Sedro-Woolley High Schools. The program provides an extracurricular option for students who want to make a difference in their community and gain important skills for success. Like other school-based clubs and teams, ViV is led by a coach. At each school, the ViV coach works with students who learn topics such as communication and job skills, exploring school and career interests, and more. The coach helps students find volunteer opportunities and track their hours. Those who complete 100 hours of service receive a varsity letter in volunteerism from their high school during a spring ceremony. Varsity in Volunteerism (ViV) encourages and recognizes high school students to give back to their communities through service. Since ViV began in 2011, students have collectively provided over 50,000 hours of service! 22754 18588 250340 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 1 6 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 X 6 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 0 0 0 X X The Organization 3607559521 PO Box 451 Burlington WA 98233 Germaine Kornegay Board Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Eli Haddick Board Chair 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Ken Johnson Treasurer 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Sarah Hinman Secretary 1.00 X X 0 0 0 Marie Erbstoeszer Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Bill Aslett Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Larsen Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jeff Brown Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Jodi Rose Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Andrew Miller Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Amanda Huffstetler Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Scott Campbell Director 1.00 X 0 0 0 Amanda Rothman Executive Director 40.00 X 76497 0 1777 76497 0 1777 0 0 0 0 0 37792 128736 319122 10474 485650 19535 19535 505185 0 0 19535 52679 52679 18588 18588 66772 26421 39695 656 177356 69138 45227 62991 1688 1271 417 17490 7137 5546 4807 22078 8617 7703 5758 95452 95452 32075 11889 10889 9297 1568 363 11 1194 1884 745 684 455 4452 1590 1312 1550 32802 13282 11030 8490 992 609 16 367 1764 386 459 919 7639 2734 2274 2631 1345 865 220 260 3959 1635 1622 702 Program supplies 25711 19574 755 5382 Events 21036 3830 435 16771 Dues and subscriptions 9227 2323 4522 2382 7727 6664 299 764 604284 250340 228151 125793 408896 55285 249927 515393 46463 29572 11231 39583 1000 1000 30879 30879 1346 0 40150 24493 747782 676557 30467 38505 40761 25104 71228 63609 X 657089 606059 19465 6889 676554 612948 747782 676557 -99099 35493 0 X 0 1 X 1 0 X 845014 780021 780554 557175 485650 3448414 845014 780021 780554 557175 485650 3448414 350458 3097956 8089 4369 679 11791 19535 44463 7516 2485 3468 2797 16266 3509143 0.88280 0.88910 X Schedule A, Part II, Line 10, Explanation of Other Income: Service fees and other miscellaneous revenue RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 26129 26129 0 4750 4750 0 0 Lease liability 25104 25104 505922 737 737 505185 0 505185 605021 737 737 604284 0 604284 1 United General District 304 2031 Hospital Dr Sedro Woolley WA 98284 461035355 501(c)(3) 11000 5122 FMV Diapers and other supplies Diapers and other supplies; Youth - United, Varsity in Volenteering Helping Hands Food Bank PO Box 632 Sedro Woolley WA 98284 911203572 501(c)(3) 0 29229 FMV Diapers and other supplies Diapers and other supplies Skagit Valley Neighbors In Need 1615 S 2nd St Mount Vernon WA 98273 910951646 501(c)(3) 0 5142 FMV Diapers and other supplies Diapers and other supplies 3 Gift cards 15 7588 Part I, Line 2: Organizations receiving discretionary funding from United Way undergo intensive pre-screening before being awarded funding.
