United Way of Northern Arizona is mobilizing to wage an all-out war on community problems, and it's doing it with more than just money.
'Our board said we want to be community builders,' UWNA Executive Director Kerry Blume said. 'The old United Way was seen more as a fund-raiser. Our board said fund-raising is not our only mission. Our mission is to improve lives, mobilize communities and change conditions. We've become much more focused on this. We're not abandoning the old work; we are simply expanding.' "
