Board of Directors

Volunteer Led. Volunteer Driven.

From our Board of Directors to fundraising volunteers—and the thousands of others who lend their time and talents each year—volunteer leaders are the heartbeat of United Way. Their dedication ensures we continue to address the issues that matter most to the Virginia Peninsula.

Our Board of Directors consists of passionate, community-minded leaders who provide strategic guidance and oversight, helping shape the future of United Way. Their unwavering commitment to creating meaningful, lasting change drives our mission forward. Their leadership not only defines our path—it inspires our progress. We are deeply grateful for their vision, their service, and for lighting the way.

Thanks to the generosity of our Board of Directors, 100% of all funds raised for United Way or our Certified Partners Agencies goes back into the community!
