The most important resource we have is people –
those whom we serve and all of us who volunteer,
who work, who invest, and who care about making a long-term change in community conditions.
We work with business, government, the media,
nonprofits – because it takes a whole community
to get the kind of results we need.
THE POWER OF VOLUNTEERS
United Way Community Services’ George W.
Romney Volunteer Center mobilizes groups and
individuals around volunteerism and develops
leadership skills of volunteers in order to increase
the community capacity in Wayne, Oakland and
Macomb counties.
Days of Caring ramp build.

DAYS OF CARING
• United Way Community Services Campaign
Kick Off Days Of Caring
On Sept. 10 and 11, 2004, over 1,200 volunteers
from companies, service organizations, faith
based and youth organizations participated in over
80 projects around the tri-county. These projects
included packing food boxes at Gleaners Community Food Bank, landscaping at youth serving
organizations and building 45 handicap access
ramps for individual homes.
• Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Of Caring
United Way continued its 11-year MLK Day
tradition of impact by partnering with University
of Michigan-Dearborn, Henry Ford Community
College and Davenport University to celebrate by
giving back. Approximately 275 students participated in service projects at 17 sites.
• Warren Woods Tower High School
Warren Woods Tower High School promotes service to the students; some of their key clubs and
freshmen are encouraged to participate. Now in
its second year, activities involved 160 students.
• West Bloomfield High School
This relatively new service partnership provided
community service opportunities to 48 students at
four area sites.
The Southeast Michigan Corporate Volunteer Council (SMCVC) was revitalized in June
2004. Over 30 corporations were represented at
the launch, and 22 corporations have joined as
members. The mission of the council is to act as
a catalyst for businesses to build, promote, and
sustain successful volunteer programs that serve the
metropolitan Detroit community.
The Board Walk training series, a partnership
between United Way, Detroit Executive Service Corp
and, VAST, helps improve board functioning through
targeted trainings. Lawrence Technological Institute
joined the partnership in 2004, contributing space
and additional marketing.
The Super Bowl Host Committee selected
Volunteer Solutions as the tool they would use to
manage the 10,000 volunteers recruited for Super
Bowl XL. They also asked that United Way partner
with them around volunteer recruitment, and chair
and participate on the Volunteer Advisory Committee
to facilitate recruitment.
Volunteer Solutions, an interactive, web-based
recruitment and matching system, monitors the
number of agencies, volunteers and opportunities
that are registered each month. The total number
of volunteers registered on Volunteer Solutions
increased 11 percent from 2003 to 2004.
It takes the whole community – working together – to
create real change. As metro Detroit’s leading community
impact organization, United Way brings together people
and organizations from all across metro Detroit to tackle
the issues that matter most. By focusing on the bottomline results -- the lives we change and the communities
we shape – we help improve the quality of life in Wayne,
Oakland and Macomb counties.
THE POWER OF COMMUNITY
United Way’s Special Summer Program
continued its work with more than 30 tri-county
programs, providing young people with positive
development activities that are also fun, diverse and
safe learning experiences. Since the program began
in 1967, more than 500,000 young people have
participated in the Special Summer Program positive
youth development activities.
2004 United Way / NFL Hometown Huddle held at Ford Field.
The Ray West Memorial Ramp Project improved
the lives of 47 families across southeastern Michigan, building and installing wheelchair ramps at no
cost through a generous material donation from
National Lumber Company of Warren and the efforts
of more than 800 volunteers. Members, retirees and
local and international leadership from the following
contributed to 34 ramps: U.A.W., Locals 7, 22, 51,
140, 155, 163, 174, 212, 228, 245, 372, 400, 412,
653, 869, 889, 909, 961, 1700, 1979, 2280 & A.F.L.C.I.O. affiliates involved were U.W.U.A., Local 223,
U.A. Local 636, C.W.A., Local 4001, I.B.T., Local 299
& I.B.E.W., Local 58.
United Way’s NFL partnership with the Detroit
Lions continued in two separate events:
• Held in each NFL city across the county, Hometown Huddle is a day of civic engagement for pro
players and their local United Ways. More than
25 Detroit Lions players and alumni joined high
school students from Allen Park High School, Murray-Wright High School, and L’Anse Creuse North
High School, several United Way partner agencies
and other volunteers to create holiday packages
for needy area families.

• The 2004 NFL/United Way Thanksgiving Day
Halftime Show entertainment featured multi-platinum
recording artist John Mellancamp. The performance
also featured local dancers from southeast Michigan
dance studios and high schools. Last year’s show
focused on getting people involved in their
communities.
United Way’s Labor Department distributed unemployment kits to thousands of laid-off workers, encompassing several plant closings and held agency
fairs to provide needed information about available
community services and programs.
Plant closings included Meridan Automotive –
Dearborn; K-Mart Distribution Center – Canton;
Food Basic – Detroit; SET Enterprise – Warren
and City of Detroit Workers – Detroit. Along with
organized labor, the department also assembled and
distributed over 350 holiday gift baskets to make the
season memorable for those in need. Additionally,
more than $4,000 was raised and over 15,000 informational items were distributed at Ford Field during
LaborFest 2004.
United Way helps bring communities together to
take a look at the most urgent needs and determine
how best to improve lives. If it requires fundraising, public policy advocacy or just getting people to
work together, that’s what we do. We look deep into
the issues – it’s not enough to feed a hungry family,
we work to change the conditions that led to their
hunger in the first place.
THE POWER OF PROGRAMMING
Individual Development Accounts make it possible
for low-income individuals to purchase a first home,
start or grow a business, or to pay for college or vocational training by showing them how to save money and
to build wealth through acquired assets. IDAs provide
program participants with a 4:1 match for a first home
purchase or assistance with a business startup, and an
8:1 match for college or vocational training.
2004 saw the advent of youth-based IDAs, offering
participants an 8:1 match on funds they save. Money
can be used for tuition or to purchase a computer to
help them with coursework. Additionally, an employerbased IDA, has been established with a local corporation, providing their workers with a 4:1 match on funds
saved to purchase a first home.
United Way mobilized law enforcement officials, along with
residents, community partners and government leaders for its
Taking Action Against Violence initiative.
The IDA program held 101 active accounts in 2004; 47
homeownership, eight business, and 46 college tuition
and vocational school accounts. Savings for the 101
accounts totaled $77,865, approximately $344,693 was
provided in matching funds and mortgages on the 47
homes equaled $4,624,610.
Metro Detroit’s Promise, is now in year three of a
five-year initiative to mobilize community partners in
order to build the character and competence of youth in
Wayne, Oakland and Macomb counties. From tutoring
programs to sports camps to employability and life skills
training, our diverse group of partners provides an array of services that change lives. In fact, during the past
year, MDP partners have delivered one or more of the
five promises to more than 6,610 children and youth. At
10
least 2,486 youth were delivered each of the promises.
In 2004, United Way announced the availability of
$50,000 for each MDP Task Force Region. Those
funds will aid the development of initiatives that engage
MDP’s Sites of Promise (SOP) in more targeted
promise delivery in each of the four geographic divisions between April 2005 and March 2006. The grants
are funded jointly by United Way and the Ford Motor
Company Fund.
The Taking Action Against Violence initiative was
launched in 2004 in response to a succession of violent
crimes in the city of Detroit. During the first phase,
United Way mobilized residents, community partners,
government leaders and law enforcement officials in
an effort to identify the most critical issues related to
violence in two of the city’s toughest precincts – the 5th
precinct and the 9th precinct.
More than 800 residents turned out for violence prevention rallies held in each precinct during August 2004.
Those events were followed by town hall meetings in
the precincts, during which residents prioritized conditions leading to crime in their neighborhoods.
In early 2005, Macomb and Wayne counties started
TAAV initiatives. Violent crime is a regional issue and
best addressed through public-private sector partnerships. TAAV will serve as United Way’s framework for
creating change in this area.
More than 33,700 callers dialed United Way’s Tel-Help
service in 2004 for information and referral assistance.
That volume is expected to grow when the capabilities
of the system are upgraded with the launch of United
Way 2-1-1 in December 2005.
When introduced, the three digit number 2-1-1 will
greatly enhance the existing telephone service with
critical health and human service resources that are
available 24 hours a day, seven days a week. The network will also compile statistics into a database United
Way can use to analyze service delivery and consumer
needs. This allows planners to locate services where
they are needed most, increasing community impact
and boosting efficiency.
United Way convened a coalition of 20 public and
private agencies, churches and other service providers
and leaders from the Hispanic community in Macomb
County to better meet the social services, health,
educational and economic development needs of the
area’s burgeoning Hispanic population.
United Way has provided $67,000 in special grants to
assist this community. Additionally, materials regarding state health insurance and bus transportation
have been translated. A $5,000 grant application for a
substance abuse prevention program was developed
and approved by the state. Coalition results include
Mobile Clinic weekly from Mt. Clemens General, two
established FEMA sites in the Hispanic Community
for emergency food, shelter and utility assistance, Girl
Scouts troop for Hispanic girls and increased participation in Headstart classes.
The Nonprofit Facilities Center, a joint program of
United Way and Nonprofit Finance Fund, is designed
to help metro Detroit nonprofits plan, develop and manage their facility projects. In partnership with more than
200 local nonprofits and more than 70 corporate and
foundation donors, NFC’s services include workshops,
one-on-one consultations, planning grants, capital
grants and capital loans. Ultimately, NFC provides
increased access to health care, mental health treatment, education and job training, transitional homeless
services and other critical human and social services.
Ron Gettelfinger, president, International
Union UAW, chaired the 2004 annual
campaign to lead the community in reaching
its goal for the first time in four years,
raising $64,501,220. This includes
$2,008,750 in corporate contributions
raised for New Detroit Inc.
THE POWER OF INVESTING
Ford Land presented the second annual Virgil H.
Carr Memorial United Way Classic at the TPC of
Michigan in July 2004 as part of the Ford Senior
Players Championship. More than $105,000 was
raised to support United Way 2-1-1. Participants
played the course under the same conditions and
pin placements as professionals play in the final
round of the Ford Senior Players Championship.

and Kim Perkins, along with United Way mascot Captain Carin’.
The third annual Labor/United Way Campaign
Kickoff was held at United Food and Commercial
Workers Union, Local 876 in Madison Heights.
This was the most participation since its inception. Participants included in-plant campaign
coordinators and retirees from the following unions:
A.F.S.C.M.E., Council 25, Building Trades, C.W.A.
Local 4009, Electrical Workers, Local 17, Electrical

DaimlerChrysler Corp., Ford Motor Co. and
General Motors Corp. contributed to a pool of
matching funds to encourage new and increased
gifts to the Alexis de Tocqueville Society. Individuals
who made a new gift of $10,000 or more generated
a matching gift of an equal amount. Individuals who
contributed $10,000 or more in 2003 and increased
their gift in 2004, generated a matching gift equal to
the amount of the increase.

LEADERSHIP GIVING
2004 represented another year of record growth for
Leadership Giving and for the Tocqueville Society.
Under the volunteer leadership of Greg C. Smith,
executive vice president and president of the Americas at Ford Motor Company, Leadership Giving
set new records for overall membership and total
contributions, and a new high for membership in the
prestigious Alexis de Tocqueville Society.
For 2004, there were 6,375 Leadership Givers,
representing a 7.6 percent increase over 2003.
Leadership contributions totaled $13.5 million, an
increase of 4.5 percent. Leadership gifts accounted
for 21 percent of the overall campaign, or more than
one out of every five dollars contributed to the Torch
Drive.
The Virgil H. Carr Society for African-American leadership
givers hosted its second Blue Light in the Basement party
for current and potential members. The celebration took
place at the historic former home of Motown founder
Berry Gordy Jr.
Membership in the Alexis de Tocqueville Society
reached a new high of 247 members, an increase
of more than six percent, with gifts from members
totaling $3.7 million.
DaimlerChrysler Corporation, Ford Motor Company,
and General Motors Corporation were instrumental
in the success of the Tocqueville program. Each
contributed to a fund that provided a dollar for dollar
match for all new Alexis de Tocqueville members
and for any gift increase from returning members.
In October 2004, Judge Avern Cohn was the keynote speaker at a Law Firm Breakfast for managing partners and key attorneys from area private
14
firms. This successful event enabled United Way to
re-engage with key leaders in the legal community
and helped recruit 13 additional members to the
Tocqueville Society.
Anthony Earley, chairman and CEO of DTE Energy,
and his wife Sarah, hosted the Alexis de Tocqueville
Annual Dinner at their home. The event, sponsored by Lear Corporation and Visteon Corporation,
provided an opportunity for United Way to recognize
longstanding volunteers Joel and Shelley Tauber
with the Alexis de Tocqueville Society Award and
Walter and Retha Douglas with the Max M. Fisher
Community Service Award.
United Way’s Women’s Initiative is committed
to mobilizing women as engaged philanthropists
through leadership, fundraising and advocacy to
improve lives in our community. This Leadership
Giving program is led by 15 community members
who contribute $5,000 or more to United Way
annually. General members of the Initiative
contribute $1,000 or more annually.
Early childhood literacy has been selected as the
Women’s Initiative issue area focus. Through their
work, members hope to focus attention and advocacy around children’s ability to enter school ready to
succeed. Long-term, the Initiative seeks to improve
the readiness of pre-schoolers for kindergarten and
ultimately, the percentage of third graders reading at
grade level.
Highlighting the 2004-2005 year was a
Women’s Economic Club meeting featuring eBay CEO Meg Whitman who spoke
about “Women and Philanthropy.” Susan M.
Cischke, chair of the Women’s Initiative and
vice president of environmental and Safety
Engineering for Ford Motor Company had
the pleasure of addressing the group about
our Women’s Initiative and the focus on
Childhood Literacy. She then introduced Meg
Whitman. This unique occasion enabled
the members to reach a captive audience of
hundreds of powerful, influential women in
southeastern Michigan.
LEADERSHIP GIVING
Tocqueville Society
The Tocqueville Society is named after
the 19th Century French nobleman who
admired Americans’ unique spirit of
volunteerism. The Society’s membership
comprises a special group of influential
individuals who have made a significant
philanthropic commitment of $10,000
or more to our community by partnering
with United Way to help make a difference in metro Detroit.
